Pam and Wendy grew up in Durban, South Africa, in a culturally diverse community. Not only was their community heavily diverse, so was their family. “We are what they consider as colored because of cultural mix,” says Pam. “Our family is extremely diverse. So we [have] Indian aunties, we have Black uncles, white grandparents. [Also], Cape Malaysian is part of our DNA as well.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139818\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139818 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_chpic_7-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_chpic_7-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_chpic_7-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_chpic_7-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_chpic_7-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_chpic_7-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_chpic_7-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_chpic_7.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pam and Wendy as children with their mother Nadia Drew Loretta.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a city, Durban is considered to have the largest concentrated population of Indians outside of India. Indian influences had a major impact on the dishes that Wendy and Pam consumed growing up, and they quickly learned how to prepare such dishes at a young age—many of which can be found on Amawele’s menu today.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the components that they use on their menu is Roti, a buttery, thin Indian flatbread that is dipped in a variety of sauces and curries. Although Roti is traditionally Indian, Pam and Wendy decided to reinvent it with secret spices; they call it South African Roti or Amawele’s Roti. (Currently, their South African Roti is headed to retail nationwide.)\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.instagram.com/p/CEDNb4BhMxA/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The idea of opening Amawele’s Cuisine didn’t materialize until they moved to the United States. In South Africa, they had both worked in finance, and were eager to travel. Their initial plan was to move to the U.S. for a year or two, but upon arrival they saw the opportunities for business and decided to stay. While working to pick up jobs to make ends meet, they kept the faith that something bigger and better was heading their direction.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When South Africa hosted the 2010 World Cup, Pam and Wendy started planning a party with friends. They soon realized that San Francisco didn’t have any South African restaurants that could provide food for the party. Without a beat, they decided to prepare their favorite dishes, and sure enough, their spicy, flavorful meals were a hit. The next day, their friends encouraged them to open a restaurant. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139848\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139848 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-800x607.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"607\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-800x607.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-1020x774.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-160x121.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-768x583.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555.jpg 1125w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pam and Wendy with a friend at the World Cup 2010 party.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But Amawele’s Cuisine didn’t happen overnight—in fact, it took nearly three years to finally open. In the meantime, Pam and Wendy marketed their business while driving rideshare, saved money by working as nannies, and eventually borrowed $100,000 on credit cards. Although they had supportive friends, the realities of opening a business as two black immigrant women in San Francisco was a challenge. “People didn't look at us and say, ‘Oh, I see success in you.’ It was a little hard,” Pam says. “it wasn't like they just said, ‘Oh, well, yeah, they'll just sign the lease. Go in.’ We had to do a lot of begging and pleading.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139843\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139843 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pam and Wendy in 2012 in Las Vegas for the Rugby 7's.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">In May of 2013, Amawele’s Cuisine finally opened its doors in the Financial District at San Francisco’s Rincon Center. Like most restaurants, the first few days were a struggle. “We went home and we literally cried ourselves to sleep,” Pam says. “We were like, ‘What did we do?’”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe title=\"Twin Sisters Bring South African Comfort Food to the Bay | Dishes of the Diaspora\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/Sm4PAOs4vsQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139842\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 750px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139842 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"746\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic7.jpg 750w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic7-160x159.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pam and Wendy at the Amawele's Cuisine brick and mortar.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139841\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139841 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic9-800x1067.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1067\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic9-800x1067.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic9-1020x1360.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic9-160x213.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic9-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic9-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic9.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pam and Wendy with their mother and brother at the Amawele's brick and mortar.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fortunately, things changed by the end of the week, when customers came fluttering in. Some customers had trouble understanding the dishes, and even asked if the restaurant ever served exotic dishes like ostrich eggs or crocodile meat. “I never had an ostrich in my life, so I'm not going to sell something I don't know,” says Pam. “And again, it's not a typical South African dish, it's not. So there was a lot of educating in terms of...South African Cuisine.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the most popular dishes at Amawele’s is Bunny Chow, a cross-cultural dish of English, Indian and Zulu cuisine. Bunny Chow is a hollowed-out quarter loaf of sweet white bread filled with either chicken curry, vegetable curry, lamb curry or beef curry, served with a side of pickled carrots to ease the spiciness. The name “Bunny” is another word for \u003ci>Bania\u003c/i>, an Indian caste of merchants who used white bread as bowls to transport their curries. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Initially the twins were against putting it on the menu; they simply couldn’t imagine seeing men in suits digging into Bunny Chow. So they introduced it to diners as similar to a soup bowl, and it soon became their most popular dish on the menu.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139832\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139832 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Preparing the Bunny Chow. \u003ccite>(Cecilia Phillips / KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139830\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139830 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The plated Bunny Chow \u003ccite>(Cecilia Phillips / KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another best-selling item is their Cape Malay Rice, a popular dish from the Cape Malays of Capetown, South Africa.

Pam and Wendy grew up in Durban, South Africa, in a culturally diverse community. Not only was their community heavily diverse, so was their family. “We are what they consider as colored because of cultural mix,” says Pam. “Our family is extremely diverse. So we [have] Indian aunties, we have Black uncles, white grandparents.

Indian influences had a major impact on the dishes that Wendy and Pam consumed growing up, and they quickly learned how to prepare such dishes at a young age—many of which can be found on Amawele’s menu today.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the components that they use on their menu is Roti, a buttery, thin Indian flatbread that is dipped in a variety of sauces and curries. Although Roti is traditionally Indian, Pam and Wendy decided to reinvent it with secret spices; they call it South African Roti or Amawele’s Roti. (Currently, their South African Roti is headed to retail nationwide.)\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In South Africa, they had both worked in finance, and were eager to travel. Their initial plan was to move to the U.S. for a year or two, but upon arrival they saw the opportunities for business and decided to stay. While working to pick up jobs to make ends meet, they kept the faith that something bigger and better was heading their direction.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When South Africa hosted the 2010 World Cup, Pam and Wendy started planning a party with friends. They soon realized that San Francisco didn’t have any South African restaurants that could provide food for the party. Without a beat, they decided to prepare their favorite dishes, and sure enough, their spicy, flavorful meals were a hit. The next day, their friends encouraged them to open a restaurant. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139848\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139848 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-800x607.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"607\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-800x607.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-1020x774.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-160x121.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555-768x583.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/IMG_6555.jpg 1125w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pam and Wendy with a friend at the World Cup 2010 party.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But Amawele’s Cuisine didn’t happen overnight—in fact, it took nearly three years to finally open. In the meantime, Pam and Wendy marketed their business while driving rideshare, saved money by working as nannies, and eventually borrowed $100,000 on credit cards. Although they had supportive friends, the realities of opening a business as two black immigrant women in San Francisco was a challenge. “People didn't look at us and say, ‘Oh, I see success in you.’ It was a little hard,” Pam says. “it wasn't like they just said, ‘Oh, well, yeah, they'll just sign the lease. Go in.’ We had to do a lot of begging and pleading.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139843\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139843 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-768x576.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/FOOD2105_amaweles_apic18.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pam and Wendy in 2012 in Las Vegas for the Rugby 7's.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">In May of 2013, Amawele’s Cuisine finally opened its doors in the Financial District at San Francisco’s Rincon Center.

Some customers had trouble understanding the dishes, and even asked if the restaurant ever served exotic dishes like ostrich eggs or crocodile meat. “I never had an ostrich in my life, so I'm not going to sell something I don't know,” says Pam. “And again, it's not a typical South African dish, it's not. So there was a lot of educating in terms of...South African Cuisine.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the most popular dishes at Amawele’s is Bunny Chow, a cross-cultural dish of English, Indian and Zulu cuisine. Bunny Chow is a hollowed-out quarter loaf of sweet white bread filled with either chicken curry, vegetable curry, lamb curry or beef curry, served with a side of pickled carrots to ease the spiciness. The name “Bunny” is another word for \u003ci>Bania\u003c/i>, an Indian caste of merchants who used white bread as bowls to transport their curries. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Initially the twins were against putting it on the menu; they simply couldn’t imagine seeing men in suits digging into Bunny Chow. So they introduced it to diners as similar to a soup bowl, and it soon became their most popular dish on the menu.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139832\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139832 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9046-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Preparing the Bunny Chow. \u003ccite>(Cecilia Phillips / KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_139830\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-139830 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2021/02/428A9056-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The plated Bunny Chow \u003ccite>(Cecilia Phillips / KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another best-selling item is their Cape Malay Rice, a popular dish from the Cape Malays of Capetown, South Africa.

Each dish tells a story of ancestry, migration, and memory, and the tastes and aromas keep chefs and diners connected to home, even when they’re far away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dishes of the Diaspora, a new KQED web series premiering in February, tells their stories. In each episode, African restaurant owners from around the Bay invite viewers into the kitchen to share personal experiences, signature dishes, and fresh takes on comfort food. The series also provides a front-row seat to the unprecedented hardships for restaurants brought on by the pandemic. Running a restaurant in the most expensive region in the country is a feat in itself, and it can be doubly challenging for immigrants navigating a new culture and unfamiliar systems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Dishes of the Diaspora premiere, we meet Oumar Diouf, chef/owner of The Damel, a restaurant and food truck in Oakland’s Uptown neighborhood. After learning to cook to help his mother as a child in Senegal, Diouf’s journey to Brazil inspired a mission to share his cross-cultural flavors with the world. Now he cooks up a mix of Senegalese, Argentinian, and Brazilian street food, opening a window into the history of these cultures with every plate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dishes of the Diaspora premieres Wednesday, Feb. 3 on \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/dishesofthediaspora\">www.kqed.org/dishesofthediaspora\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Each dish tells a story of ancestry, migration, and memory, and the tastes and aromas keep chefs and diners connected to home, even when they’re far away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dishes of the Diaspora, a new KQED web series premiering in February, tells their stories. In each episode, African restaurant owners from around the Bay invite viewers into the kitchen to share personal experiences, signature dishes, and fresh takes on comfort food. The series also provides a front-row seat to the unprecedented hardships for restaurants brought on by the pandemic. Running a restaurant in the most expensive region in the country is a feat in itself, and it can be doubly challenging for immigrants navigating a new culture and unfamiliar systems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Dishes of the Diaspora premiere, we meet Oumar Diouf, chef/owner of The Damel, a restaurant and food truck in Oakland’s Uptown neighborhood. After learning to cook to help his mother as a child in Senegal, Diouf’s journey to Brazil inspired a mission to share his cross-cultural flavors with the world. Now he cooks up a mix of Senegalese, Argentinian, and Brazilian street food, opening a window into the history of these cultures with every plate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dishes of the Diaspora premieres Wednesday, Feb. 3 on \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/dishesofthediaspora\">www.kqed.org/dishesofthediaspora\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
