A Rich Legacy
Culture in a Bowl is part of a family legacy that dates back to the 1980s in Detroit Michigan. It all started with aunt Phyllis Sancho, a proud Liberian, chef, and cultural ambassador (more in our About section). We’re proud to carry on this legacy, and spread West African culture through authentic cuisine.
