Takeaways:
The Story Behind the Billionaire Chef – Chef Tolu Eros’ Instagram handle is @thebillionairechef. Though it was meant to be a temporary change, the moniker has served as a confession, affirmation, and reminder to operate with the highest order of thinking.

Collaboration with Chase Sapphire and Michael B. Jordan – Chef Tolu Eros was tapped to be a part of the Taste of West Africa commercial starring Michael B. Jordan, other notable chefs, and a spirited conversation about West Africa’s famous cuisine, Jollof Rice.

Culinary Differences between West Africa and US – Business in America and West Africa presents obvious differences. For Chef Tolu Eros, one of the largest differences is the accessibility due to the development gaps. However, the food scene in Nigeria is growing.
