Bringing People Together Through Food, Culture, and Experience…
At AfroGourmets, food is more than just nourishment—it’s a story, a journey, and a way to connect people across cultures.
Founded by Awa & Ibrahima, AfroGourmets is the result of a passion for authentic flavors, a love for sharing food, and a deep-rooted belief that culinary experiences can bring communities together.
Our journey started in Africa, where the kitchen was the heart of every home, a place where traditions were passed down through generations.
From Senegal to Morocco, we honed our skills hosting luxurious private events, intimate dining experiences, and immersive food journeys for international guests.
Now, in Thunder Bay, we are bringing that same passion, authenticity, and excellence to our new community.
We believe that cooking is an art, a conversation, and a way to celebrate diversity. Through cooking classes, private chef services, specialty food products, and curated pop-up events, we invite you to discover the magic of food—one bite at a time.
