Radio Africa & Kitchen brings people together for stimulating conversation and laughter accompanied by authentic, healthy meals — all while listening to a variety of world music. 

When you dine with us, we encourage you to sit together at one large table (family style) as you would in your own home.

The name comes from Eskender’s experience growing up in Ethiopia with very few outlets for popular music and sports. 

Only one household per neighborhood might have a radio and kids would gather and listen to soccer matches and music, sharing laughter, conversation and snacks — typically freshly roasted barley, garbanzo beans and other whole grain cereals. 

The music they listened to came from all parts of Africa.
