Where to Eat and Drink in Takoma Park | Eater DC
"Owner Hatib Joof opened Mansa Kunda in 2019 with the intention of introducing diners to his native west African cuisine. It’s one of the only places around to try peanut butter chu, a dish that originated in Gambia. Other highlights include ebbeh, the Gambian version of gumbo; yassa chicken, a tangy spicy onion dish; and fufu, a dough made out of cassava or plantain flour. If the menu at this welcoming neighborhood restaurant and bar isn’t enough of an education, there’s also stacks of African themed books to pursue through if you have to wait for a table." - Claudia Rosenbaum
