Vegan chef Wo’se Kofi, also known as “Pattyman,” founder of Baba’s Vegan Café, was born and raised in South Los Angeles. Also known in the Inglewood area where he attended high school. He studied business at California State University--Dominguez Hills for 3 years until life took him on a different course.
As a young man, Wo’se grew up in an environment where vegan choices were slim. Most of the food available to inner city residents was unhealthy fast food and pre-processed “foodstuffs” found in corner store markets. However, from selling candy in elementary school to vending salads at lunch to fellow employees at a Hollywood candy factory, Wo’se knew he would own his own business someday; he has always been an entrepreneur.
After high school, Wo’se founded Crystal’s Cakes, where he baked pastries and vended at events throughout L.A. and in Black creative mecca, Leimert Park. Wo’se also prepped food at “Mr. Wisdom’s Health Food Store” for 5 years, after that serving as sous chef at the popular Inglewood vegan eatery, Stuff I Eat.
In 2013, Wo’se created Baba's Café, which is a vegan vending and catering company known as a "Pop Up" shop, located in the historic Crenshaw District’s hub for African Diasporic culture, Leimert Park. Offering a wide array of vegetarian dishes, they specialize in Vegan Veggie Patties. He also made his name after spending a few years in the late night reggae scene at the dub club, as "The Patty Man". Out side of the Original World Stage, and Kaos Network.
Now Wo’se needs your help to expand Baba’s Vegan Catering “Pop Up”, into Baba's Vegan Café in 2021, to develop a space that would offer not only healthy food, but hopefully a space for healing to the community, with classes such as yoga and meditation. His partner Lauren Anu Wolley is a certified Kemetic Yoga Practitioner.
The family is ready to have their kitchen back. Help me make this transition.
We hire artists and upcoming entrepreneurs from the community, as they grow we grow.
We took a break from fundraising for the space, focussing on raising our son now 2 1/2 years old, and a daughter on the way in March.
Baba says:
“So far we have crunched the numbers and our start up costs would be around $20,000. We would like to secure at least 4 months rent, so we aim to raise at least $25,000.
