It's GhanaBeTasty, it's going to be special too. Billed as a five course taste tour of Zoe's Ghanaian cookbook, Zoe Adjonyoh's supperclub was tasty and it was fun. We do like the magical atmosphere under the low level lighting, feels like your eating inside a themed wonderland tent. If you are going to book a meal at the south London venue anticipate that you are in for a great night, dinning on traditional African cuisine. Very cosy. Here is our review of our evening.

This article is about the panel discussion, progress made in a year and next steps we should make to promote African Cuisine.

The Southbank Centre Food Market featured the following stalls in 2014 Zoe's Ghana Kitchen; Chale Let's Eat; Pepper and Stew; Ethiopian Coffee and Zigni Sauce and Spice (Eritrean). Now more African foodie entrepreneurs are entering the market. Included from Africa and the Caribbean we now have Ghanaian, Liberian, Nigerian, Sierra Leone, South African, Ethiopian and Jamaican foods.

Chop X Beats is a fresh musical and culinary event that aims to create a feel good party atmosphere. They aim to provide a fun way to connect with, share and explore African culture.

Three reasons why you should take up a traders stall at Spitalfields in May 2016

1. The glass ceiling, diversity and inclusion at your work in positions of power in management. Frustrated? See Hollywood boycott, ‪#‎blacklivesmatter‬, the gender, ethnic pay gap and gender pricing
2. No pension in your future, so start your life time business now. Build the future today. Never retire. Support your family with flexibility
3. Real opportunities exist for first, second and third generation African and Caribbean entrepreneurs
