Something New: Kianga's Kitchen Grand Opening
Kianga's Kitchen has catered in Knoxville since August 2018. It will soon join the list of vendors at Marble City Market at 333 W. Depot Ave. in the Old City. It will host a grand opening on Feb. 3 from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. as it takes over the stall formerly used by Penne For Your Thoughts.
The restaurant is owned by husband and wife Tor and Romoke Ajanaku, who are also the chefs in the kitchen. Tor Ajanku is the assistant director of the African American Appalachian Arts organization, which hosts the KUUMBA Festival.
The food served at Kianga's Kitchen combines traditional Southern dishes with international ingredients, and it's all vegan. There's sweet potatoes, vegetable curry, Tuscan "not chicken" over beans and rice, collard greens and quinoa, just to name a few items.
Everything is made from scratch in the kitchen, except for the vegan butter, which they might start making themselves soon. Even the meat alternatives are made from scratch.
