How we read reviews →Footscray's beloved West African kitchen. homestyle jollof, egusi and fufu with big portions.
Warm, homely dining room near Footscray station with African art and music playing; reviewers repeatedly describe it as feeling like home rather than a typical restaurant.
House-made fufu and pounded yam, a weekend-only Bissap drink, and Malta soft drink on the menu; family-run with the same owner-operators greeting regulars by name.
Praised by reviewers of West African background as capturing genuine home-country flavours; dishes are named in native terms (egusi, fufu, attieke, ogbono) rather than anglicised.
Generous portions for the price (roughly $27-35 per head for mains); a handful of reviewers found it 'a little expensive', but most call it good value for the size and flavour.
