Welcome to the West African Food Tour!
Out of the six top most populous countries, Nigeria is the fastest growing country in the world. In the United States alone, the Sub-Saharan population has almost doubled over the past decade, from 1.3 million in 2010 to 2.1 million in 2019.
Join us for a culinary adventure through the vibrant flavors of West Africa in Chicago. Indulge in traditional dishes from countries like Nigeria, Ghana, and Senegal. Immerse yourself in the rich culture and history of West African cuisine as you taste your way through savory stews, spicy jollof rice, and sweet plantains. This in-person event is perfect for foodies looking to expand their palate and experience a taste of Africa right here in the heart of the city. Don't miss out on this delicious opportunity to explore the diverse and delicious world of West African food! Vegetarian options will be available at each stop.
