How a Commercial Led to Cooking in Africa & the Value of Rice: Founder Wisdom #048 - JJ Johnson

from Finding Founders · host Finding Founders

How does an ingredient like rice help better a community? Today we sit down with JJ Johnson, renowned chef on the African diaspora, and founder of the rice bowl restaurant, FIELDTRIP. Growing up in Harlem, surrounded by his grandmother’s cooking and international flavors, food has long formed part of JJ’s DNA. But as we follow his journey of becoming a chef, traveling to Africa, and establishing his own business, JJ’s story teaches us how food can actually break barriers, bring communities together, and celebrate cultural diversity. findingfounders.co --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/finding-founders/support Learn more about your ad choices.
