Chef Tony Clarke aka The Mango Man set roots in Madison, WI and soon after, opened his food cart, Mango Man Latin Soul Food, in 2003.
Over the ensuing decades, he expanded his Afro-Latino, family-run, business into event vending, catering, and the Cafe Costa Rica restaurants. In 2017, he established the Mango Man Cooks! food line.
Increasingly with each of these endeavors, Thony built a strong relationship and worked closely with the larger local food movement and he has become well-known in the community.
While his goal was to grow his business, he ended up doing one better than that and, more importantly, nurtured and grew the
Mango Man Cooks! brand.
