1014: James and Johanna Windon Founders of Buena Papa Fry Bar

Husband-and-wife team, James and Johanna Windon, founded Buena Papa (Spanish translation, Good Potato) in 2021 in Raleigh, N.C., after the COVID-19 pandemic forced them to temporarily shut down their cleaning business. Inspired by Johanna’s native country of Colombia, their hope is to bring family, friends and entire communities together to experience new cultures and their celebrated local dishes.
