38. Abena Danquah - Ghana Jollof
Abena Danquah has joined a growing offering of African food stalls at the Neighbourgoods Food Market at the Biscuit Mill in Salt River. On the strength of her success, selling delicious Ghanaian street food, she opened her restaurant 'Ghana Jollof' in Main Road in Woodstock in December 2023, and it's pumping. We sat down to chat about her journey, the popularity of jollof, and the growth of African food outlets in the city. The traffic noise of a busy city road intruded a little into the recording, so bear with us as I chat to this wonderful entrepreneur about the vibrant cuisine of Ghana.
