Best Ghanaian food in NJ. Period
I’m not one to drop reviews usually but I had an exceptional experience at Esther’s kitchen, the food came out fast, fresh and delicious. I had the light soup and fufu and it was amazing.
I ordered waakye and it looked absolutely delicious. The rice was tasty but the stew and the meat was underwhelming. No seasoning in the meat at all, just fried. The stew too didn’t have any seasoning. The bigger disappointment was the shito. It tasted smokey/burnt with an overwhelming taste of ginger. The pepper added made it very spicy to the point where there was no flavor. There are actual pepper flakes added to this shito. No hint of ground shrimp just numbing spice. I’m hoping I just received a poor batch and other days will be better for them.
