[0:10] restaurant is abington.
[0:14] Thank you.
[0:15] Hello everyone. My name is Siobhan
[0:16] Laban. I'm her son and as she already
[0:18] stated, she comes from Togo in West
[0:20] Africa. My mother grew up cooking in a
[0:23] restaurant with her grandmother and
[0:24] learned all these amazing and delicious
[0:26] recipes that I was very fortunate to
[0:27] grow up with in my family with my
[0:29] siblings. And um if we were to win the
[0:32] Hatchington competition, my mother would
[0:34] use that money to share her culinary
[0:36] journey with other people and open a
[0:38] takeout space in Bloomington, offering
[0:40] that home away from home feeling, not
[0:42] just for other West African people in
[0:43] our city, but for everyone to experience
[0:46] the culture that we have to offer. Um,
[0:49] there's going to be many different kinds
[0:50] of things you can get all the way from
[0:52] fufu to jalof rice to even chicken.
[0:55] Whatever you're feeling, my mother has
[0:56] it. Um, we're really excited to be
[0:58] sharing with you guys, but that's only
[0:59] if you vote for us. Um, on August 6th,
[1:03] we'll be participating in the top 10
[1:04] competition. Last year, we were really
[1:07] grateful to make it to top three, but we
[1:09] unfortunately didn't make it. But this
[1:11] year, we want to change that narrative.
[1:12] So, we hope that after we participate on
[1:14] August 6th, you guys will vote for Nuna.
[1:17] Make sure you vote for us. We'll be
[1:18] waiting for you.
[1:19] Please vote for us.
[1:21] She's ready to cook for you guys.
[1:23] Thank you.
