The Foodie Bistro

I’m a 19-year-old African American business owner and fine dining chef, redefining soul food with a healthier, refined, and elegant touch. Cooking started as an outlet at eight, but it became my passion and purpose. My goal is to honor traditional flavors while elevating them for the fine dining world. As a young Black chef in a space where we’re often underrepresented, I’m driven to break barriers and prove that soul food belongs at the highest level. Now pursuing a degree in culinary arts with a minor in applied sciences, I’m also celebrating three years as a business owner, running a Private Chef Company with my sister and business partner, Aniya Tutson. What started as a passion has become my dream career, and I’m just getting started.

Fufunsauce

When I started this company, I wanted a brand that reflects an authentic representation of my African roots. Furthermore, I wanted to create a bridge between Africans (culture) and the western world. I wanted the African story and way of life to be told by Africans. FUFU n’ Sauce offers authentic African meals including Fufu with a variety of stews. Our stews include Egusi, Palm Nut Stew, Fish Stew, Goat Pepper Soup, Oxtail Stew and more. At FUFU n’ Sauce, it is very important that we work directly with African vendors from the continent. I witnessed the vicious cycle of Africa being the source of numerous resources that help the western world thrive, yet Africans are often left behind. I was determined to find a solution to that problem.
