A beloved Memphis-area pop-up and catering company is getting ready to launch the next chapter of its already exciting career. Monmu & Monje, known for its delicious West African cuisine and refreshing teas, has signed a lease for a new storefront in Cordova. 

 

Monmu & Monje will be setting up shop at 1890 Berryhill Road, suite 109. Leasing documents pertaining to the storefront shows that it spans 1,400 square feet. The paperwork filed for a certificate of occupancy with the Memphis and Shelby County Division of Planning and Development states that Monmu & Monje will have a retail element, which, when paired with the company’s history of delicious food and drink, offers plenty of reason for locals to be excited.

 

A social media post related to the new space is bound to inspire even more curiosity and enthusiasm, saying: “We are watching God’s Word come alive in real time. New ideas, new opportunities, and yes… new space. We’re stepping into something only God could build. Can you guess what chapter is about to unfold?”

 

Monmu & Monje, which is “rebranding and building a new structure”, is already an area favorite. The company website states its driving ethos, saying: “Monmu & Monje means “I’m drinking & I’m eating.” We’re here to introduce bold West African flavors through approachable bowls, fire-grilled suya, and vibrant drinks — fast, fresh, and fun.”
