Two Hommés Went From Childhood Friends To Community Fixtures

Ever wonder what it would be like to open a restaurant with your best friend? This week on Locales Only, we are riding around Inglewood with the owners of Two Hommés, Yaw Marcus Yaw Johnson (Chef Mando) and Abdoulaye Balde (Chef AB). 

Two Hommés is a testament to what is possible in a restaurant and kitchen when you blend culture, experimentation, and passion, and we’re going to learn about their journey from cooking meals on a flattop grill for the neighborhood to opening their own brick-and-mortar establishment. 

We’re also going to learn about their influences, their families, and how people can find the drive to create something they truly care about. So buckle up and enjoy the conversation! 

Big thanks to Fletcher-Jones Motorcar of Newport Beach for sponsoring the show and building out the all-electric Mercedes-Benz EQE as our rolling podcast studio!
