The Best African and West African Restaurants in Atlanta | Eater Atlanta
"Located in Peachtree Corners, West African restaurant Cafe Songhai offers a profusion of diaspora dishes primarily from Nigeria, Ghana, and Senegal. Appetizers like beef suya (a seasoned street meat popular in Nigeria) and meat pies will feel more familiar to diners new to Nigerian food, but the best of the menu is found in traditional dishes like egusi (meat-based spinach stew), palm nut-banga soup (tomato-based meat soup), and red red (black-eyed pea and tomato stew). Opt for jollof rice with protein options like chicken, beef, fish, or tripe, and make sure to save room for puff-puff — a doughy fried dessert sprinkled with powdered sugar. Expect live jazz performances on Fridays." - Carolyn Desalu
