Our Story

Three generations of Ghanaian flavour

Mama Esi started selling waakye from a coal pot on Oxford Street over fifteen years ago. Today her kitchen feeds hundreds of Accra residents every day — but every pot is still cooked the slow way, with the same family recipes.

No shortcuts, no compromises: charcoal-grilled fish, freshly pounded fufu to order, and shito made in-house every week.

  • Charcoal-grilled tilapia, fresh daily
  • Fufu pounded to order — never pre-made
  • Family recipes, cooked the slow way
  • MTN MoMo, card & cash accepted

What Accra is saying

The banku and tilapia is the best I have had outside of my mother's kitchen. The pepper is serious — ask for mild if you are not ready!
