About the Restaurants

Ghanaian cuisine revolves around humble, homespun dishes featuring lots of corn, beans, yams, and potatoes. Spicy condiments add zest to complex soups and stews based on various vegetables and meats, including goat. Portuguese and Mediterranean cooking influences much of what’s served in restaurants and seafood is often featured on menus, especially on the coast. Fish and shellfish might be steamed, fried or grilled, and lobsters may be quite large. Exotic items show up, too, including whelks.
