Roseline Chiuwa. Our journey as immigrant nurses shaped our ideologies as we witnessed the profound impact of nourishing meals on overall well-being of individuals during challenging times, especially amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Inspired by the belief that health is wealth and there is need to cherish family ties and embrace our cultural identity, we embarked on a mission to bring the authentic taste of homemade African cuisines to our community.
