“I felt like I was in New Orleans!” Sasha expressed after experiencing the awesomeness that is Mojo’s! Mojo’s Restaurant and Bar located on West Bay Street, just a quarter mile away from Sandyport was actually the first episode that the Happy Foods Team shot. The team arrived on a Friday night meeting the restaurant packed and filled with life.
Head
chef and owner Maurisa – she’s the Mo in Mojos – welcomed us with opened arms
allowing us full access to the restaurant, its patrons, the bar and the
kitchen. That night it was evident that Mojo’s was one of the hottest spots in
Nassau. We immediately realized that the customers at Mojo’s were extremely
loyal! One of the patrons even told us that she visits at least once a week!
Another patron praised their infamous wings! The host can attest to that as she
described the papaya BBQ wings as “awesomelicious”, in her words.
The kitchen,
obviously where the magic happens, is where the team got to see chicken and
waffles being made as well as the restaurant’s famous Kobe burger. We also had
the opportunity to try out the restaurant’s famous hard lemonades which were
also a treat!
Joey
– the other owner and the Jo in Mojos – also took time out of his busy schedule
to talk to us about the restaurant. The idea actually came from a birthday
party for Joey which Maurisa catered.
It’s
clear that these two young Bahamians are committed to what they are doing and
that Mojos will be around for a long time to come.
