One Bite at a Time

The Nigerian Diaspora Chef Experience


Listen Later

Nigerian food has travelled the global stage for centuries now, but in this era, its popularity is aided by the chefs in the diaspora who share its authentic flavours in ingenious ways with the world.

In this episode, we explore the global rise of Nigerian cuisine with Funmilade Taiwo (F. Taiwo), a Canada-based Nigerian chef. We have a rich conversation about his journey as a chef in Toronto, the many ways Nigerian food is crafted while preserving its cultural essence,  how to establish oneself as a Nigerian chef in a foreign market, and the challenges Nigerian chefs in the diaspora face, from sourcing ingredients to confronting stereotypes.

Listen for an inspiring and insightful look at how Nigerian cuisine continues to thrive across borders.
