I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
LOL ,😁 Not a smooth road At all ,It has been really rough from the conception up to this point because the concept of many type of Cuisine from the African continent in the same setting is very unique and hard to execute.
Also the financial backing wasn’t there ,we had to fight for ways to make it happen every step of the way and even building the restaurant that we have today it was all done out of pocket and with Infaltion ,we encounter delays but Thank God now we are here.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
We specialize in Cuisine from about 43 different countries of Africa.The one thing that we are known for is our diversity and ability to execute our dishes to near perfection and make people from different region find a piece of home in our establishment. We are proud to be representing The African Nation and its culture through our Cuisine and make people discover new flavors .We are please of helping our communities by creating jobs here in the US and back in our home country.
