Serving the world on a spoon, that's what's displayed on the website of Fransar Catering Services, a culinary company owned by the Francis Otoo, an executive chef at the Embassy of Ghana in Washington DC.
In taking the road less traveled in a country where the profession did not enjoy as much prominence and prestige, Chef Francis, redefined the craft, exposing new perspectives and possibilities, ultimately emphasizing a place of service, humility and commitment. We have been privileged to be given a glimpse into his roller coaster of life in this captivating page turner. He also reflects on a life of hope and faith and the possibilities accompanying a man's gift. He revisits his modest childhood, family as a support system and a journey to the first rank of African culinary experts. This story, told beautifully in a typical African setting before transitioning into that of the western world, goes to urge on all dreamers with wild talents in various fields and all millennial chefs interested in varieties of cuisines, to fetch from the wells of his story for refreshment in the pursuit of their own. Each page is penned with love with every line coming together to birth this stunning memoir of an African Chef.Also in
