A helping of tripe was not the only thing in hot water after a South African DJ was fined for cooking mogodu in his New York City apartment, according to a media report on Sunday.
Metro FM DJ T-Bo was cooking the traditional dish in his penthouse apartment when his neighbours complained of the smell, the Sunday Sun reported.
The odour resulted in him being fined US$75 (R660) last week.
“I was shocked to be fined for cooking my cultural food. But I guess it comes with the territory,” T-Bo told the Sunday Sun.
“I’ve been here so many times, but never experienced this. I suspect the smell might have been too much and I did apologise to my neighbours,” he said.
