They say good food is the way to a persons heart and thats just what these French entrepreneurs are hoping.

Frenchmen Louis Jacquot and Sbastien Prunier started a catering company called Les Cuistots Migrateurs or The Migrant Cooks in February, employing refugees and migrants who cook and serve their native foods to Parisians.

The goal is both to provide job opportunities, and to change French peoples perceptions around migrants.

Refugees are all over the news, Jacquot told The Huffington Post. They are here but their skills are not valued. We wanted to give them the opportunity to show what theyre able to do and also make French people meet them, and change the narrative around migration.
