Classic Pili Pili Burger (Narugo)
Hi, my name’s Narugo. I was born in Congo but raised in Burundi most of my life. We moved here when I was 7 years old. I was pretty young when Thirteen started. My brother and my cousins are the main reasons why I joined. They joined back when the business first started. I joined Thirteen to expand my knowledge about business because I want to start my own business in the future to give back to the community that first helped us besides the fact that the spices are to die for. I’ve always dreamed about working in real estate and becoming a real estate agent or becoming a therapist to help people figure their feelings and emotions out.
When I first moved here, burger was the first fast food that I tried and now it is one of my favourite food. I want to share this delicious burger with Pili Pili spice mix that I like to make at home.
