Nana Ama Gyamfi, well known as Nana Ama has 10 years in the catering business. Earlier on, she was involved in catering and decorating at home which she had been doing for years. As a result, many people started encouraging her to open up a restaurant. Upon taking that advice, she began to look for a place.

When asked who inspired her to overcome those challenges she faced? She said her mother owns a business in California so she inspired her and also she inspired herself as she says; "I got tired of working for people and wanted to have my own place and let people have a taste of my delicious food?

Nana Ama has outlined her plans in the next few years; she plans to open up restaurants and night clubs to go with the bars. Also she is opening a franchise restaurant soon and another franchise restaurant in Ghana.

Her advice to those interested in the restaurant business and the youth is; "you have to love it in order to do it" she says. It takes sacrifice and just like any other business if you don't love it, you cannot do it. This is her passion and so it is easy for her to do. If you do not love it, do not try it because it is a hard work and a lot of determination that comes with it. She continues that feeding people and dealing with food "it is always a good feeling".
