"You pronounced mogodu quite well."

"Just by looking at it, it does not seem like it was poshed up. Samp with meaty bones and beef stock with a sprinkle of six guns, or creamy samp."

@Lillian commented:

"I like people who are this open-minded when they visit Africa. We eat all that in Botswana and Mogodu is my favourite. Enjoy your time in SA."
