This summer, the food festival 'Travelling Dishes' in Edmonton, Canada will feature authentic Nigerian food from Aunty Dupe's Buka. The chef behind the magic is local home cook Dupe Adedji who experienced her native cuisine while traveling as a child.
The cook is aiming to make Nigerian food more mainstream with the pop-up series held this summer. The food will include traditional dishes with modern twists in a welcoming atmosphere. The chef announced plans to introduce Nigerian cooking classes after the event so individuals in her community can learn to prepare her dishes.
As mainstream food markets are diversifying to include more multicultural dishes, consumers can expect to see an increase in inclusive food options.
