JOHNNIE AND CLYDE'S

Chef Obasi's passion for the culinary arts was fueled by a trip to Ghana as he began to rethink his chosen career path as an advanced doctoral History student. Realizing the connection between history and food, he chose to incorporate his understanding of History to his engagement with and love of food... Obasi's commitment to creating a healthy "world plate" experience examines foods along the African Diaspora on the foundation of a Mediterranean dietary lifestyle. His life coming full circle by starting Johnnie And Clyde's affectionately named after his father, John, and his wife's father, Clyde, reflects respect for his cultural identity and connection to home.
