Akwaaba

OMG, don't even know how to describethe food. Got lunch there yesterday, and will get dinner there for the family tonight. Actually lunch was enough food for lunch, dinner and a late snack, since I was working late. It was just black eyed peas and fried plantains. The beans were so subtly flavored, yet so flavorful. Tonight we'll get that along with the rice balls and peanut soup. I should add plenty of vegan options.

A really nice an authentic restaurant. The portions are large. Be sure to ask for recommendations on what to order. There is a separate menu for lunch, dinner, and weekends. There seems to be more choices on the weekends. Try to go easy on the spicy level, about a 5 should be good for most people. The restaurant is somewhat small but we had no issues getting seats.

The food was amazing. The plantains were a sweet start to the meal, followed by perfectly fried chicken; soft, moist, with a delightful crunch to the breading. The Waakye was a lovely blend of rice, beans, spices, and a choice of tender meats. I sprang for the goat, and was not disappointed. It was a juicy treat. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food, and the staff are very attentive and kind. If you don't know what to try, ask for recommendations!

Great small African restaurant, focused on dishes from Ghana. The jollof rice came with perfectly fried chicken, briefly stewed and served over flavorful rice with more froye tomato stew. The chicken still had bits of crunch, despite being well sauced and flavorful. Service was prompt and very helpful guiding a clueless order. They prepared the dish to order, which took some time.
