“So originally the idea was to set up a food truck, however my wife suggested that we do something big after she was done with her research and also saw that we have good space to implement that idea” Kwame.

He admitted that the business first encountered some challenges such as finding people with the right expertise to help and issues of electricity and water.

“We knew nothing about it and since the restaurant industry in Ghana is still young, we had issues finding the right people to help us"

For her part, Estelle expressed delight to have made the move to start out something new and hopes that the decision she and her husband made will inspire Ghanaians and diasporans alike to invest in the country.
