A kitchen for a proper lunch

One plate is good.
A full table is better.

We cook a short menu of West African dishes, with room for a quick lunch and a long list of people coming over.

Take a seat.
Take a tray.

Waakye brings rice and beans to the plate. Jollof brings tomato and pepper. Egusi brings a spoonful of rich melon-seed soup beside fufu. Each dish has its own place here.

Order at the counter for a small sit-down lunch or pickup. For a family tray, let us know ahead. For a party, start with the guest count and whether rice will be the main dish or part of a larger spread.

We name the heat on the menu so you have a useful starting point. Pepper sauce is a choice, not a test.
