History

Grubido's journey began with the creative vision of Chef Creative Kavachi, during her final year at the Hilton College of Hotel and Restaurant Management at the University of Houston. Initially conceived as a food truck project to bring West African cuisine closer to Houstonians, Chef Kavachi soon pivoted to establish a unique platform, Grubido. This platform's mission was clear: to connect more people, particularly Houstonians, with the diverse world of African food and beverage establishments. It's a story of culinary passion and a commitment to making African flavors more accessible and appreciated.
