Discover Mama Joe's Küche

Hello! To my friends and community, I'm affectionately known as Mama Jojo. It's a name given to me by those around me, filled with warmth and recognition. And when it came to naming my culinary venture, Mama Joe's Küche, there was only one choice: a heartfelt tribute to my first son, Joe. It perfectly blends the warmth of my popular nickname with the deep love for my family, encapsulating the very essence of my kitchen.

Our Culinary Journey

My culinary journey is deeply personal, rooted in a lifelong passion for food that was passed down through generations. From the tender age of eight, right here in Germany, I learned the art of cooking vibrant West African dishes from my incredible mom, who hails from Togo. Her kitchen was my first classroom, where I discovered not just recipes, but the profound joy of nourishing family and friends with delicious, soulful meals. My curiosity soon led me to explore the rich flavors and techniques of Nigerian cuisine, broadening my understanding of diverse West African culinary traditions.

Living and growing up in Munich, my passion naturally extended to the hearty and comforting world of Bavarian cuisine. I immersed myself in local ingredients and traditional methods, finding fascinating parallels and exciting contrasts with my African heritage. This dual culinary education has shaped me, allowing me to bring a truly unique blend of flavors to every dish I create.

The idea to start sharing my cooking more widely began in 2010. I presented a dish at an occasion, and the response was overwhelming – people simply loved the food! This incredible encouragement led me to provide free dishes for future meals at that time. Soon after, individuals began to seek me out, asking me to cook for their own occasions. This organic start, fueled by genuine love for the food, is how Mama Joe's Küche was born.

At Mama Joe's Küche, every meal, every party service, and every cooking class is infused with this passion. I pour my heart into sharing the authentic Taste of Africa and Bavaria, ensuring that whether it's a delivery to your home or a lesson in your kitchen, you experience the warmth, heritage, and genuine flavor that has always driven me.

I can't wait to share my culinary world with you!

Warmly,

Mama Joe
