The D.C.-Area Restaurant Openings You Should Know About This September | Eater DC
"A casual takeout spinoff from the kitchen of Elmina channels Eric Adjepong’s West African flavors into debut bites like a Dawa smash burger crowned with caramelized Yassa onion jam and fries, plus ramen bathing in pepper soup consommé with a soft egg and peri-peri oil. Comforting mains pull from Elmina favorites—oxtail stew, slow-cooked suya short rib, tamarind duck leg, and jollof rice—alongside spiced fried turkey tails and plantains; lunch and dinner run for pickup or delivery." - Tierney Plumb
