"Here, you might enjoy a croque madame at breakfast or a chicken yassa wrap with rotisserie chicken, salad greens, fried plantains, and yassa sauce at lunch. While at dinner, a vegetable maafe; a West African peanut curry with charred cauliflower and forbidden rice — all created by chef Mawa McQueen. Born in West Africa in the Côte d’Ivoire, McQueen grew up in Paris surrounded by immigrants from other countries who exposed her to a world of flavors. She brought her learnings with her to Aspen and opened Mawa’s Kitchen in 2006. These French, Moroccan, and African-inspired dishes on her menus eventually earned her a James Beard nomination." - Rebecca Treon
