Ana Scott

“Living in a new country taught me to be fearless and open-minded. I never knew I had so much strength until I left everything I knew behind.”

Born and raised in Grenada, Ana always had a passion for exploring the world beyond her small island. At 27, she decided to pack her bags and move to Dar es Salaam to pursue her dreams and make a life for herself. As luck would have it, she found a job as a waiter at a quaint little restaurant nestled in the heart of the city. Ana loves the hustle and bustle of the restaurant industry and takes pride in every dish she serves. When she's not working, she can be found dancing to Afrobeats or exploring the vibrant markets of Dar es Salaam.

What inspired you to move to Dar es Salaam?

I knew I wanted to explore more of the world, and I've always been drawn to the richness of African culture. When I visited Dar es Salaam, I fell in love with the energy of the city and knew it was where I was meant to be.

What's your favorite dish to make at the restaurant?

Definitely our seafood curry. It's packed with spices and fresh catches of the day, and it always leaves our customers wanting more.

Just like the spices in my cooking, life is all about balance and finding the right blend.
