Hundreds of friends, admirers and food connoisseurs gathered at the RA Centre on Riverside Drive to witness the launching of an innovative food preparation and catering service, a Taste of Africa. First of its kind in the national capital region, guests were treated to a sumptuous buffet from different parts of Africa, from Nigeria to Ethiopia and beyond. Proprietors Ike and Ogo Nnebe describe this service as  “a flavorful tour of Africa, a repository of hundreds of diverse diverse ethnic peoples with varied social and culinary influences”.  Taste of Africa offers an eclectic selection of catered and special order items such as food gift basket, food plans and specialty packs, student meal plans, dietary meal plans and party packs. Among those in attendance were Member of Parliament Royale Gallipeau, and ex-MPP Phil McNeely with his wife Anne-Marie, scientist Orson Bourne and wife Phyllis.
