Crescendo Foods Ghana Founder Dr. Wanida Lewis

New Jersey native Dr. Wanida Lewis founded Crescendo Foods, Ghana's first shared kitchen coworking hub, in 2021. A food scientist by profession, Dr. Lewis and Crescendo Foods' focus is to "create a Pan-African ecosystem to celebrate culture through food as well as art." It also serves as a safe place where innovative ideas can be nurtured. Located in the country's capital, Accra, Dr. Lewis and her team are preparing to host participants who want to learn about African cuisine, specifically Ghana's cuisine and food culture, during their first culinary culture exchange program, Plate 2 Plate, this July.
