African Kitchen Gallery Description
The charm and quirkiness of small restaurants is certainly amusing, and there are many takers for places like African Kitchen Gallery on Drummond Street, catering to those palates seeking something different from haute or fusion cuisine that seem to have engulfed the culinary world. The gallery aspect comes alive when diners discover that African artefacts, jewellery and ethnic arts are up for sale as well.
The menu is relatively short but packed with delights such as sweet potato or fish yam balls, and plantain cassava or bean fritters. A middle course of savannah chicken may spur your taste buds to delve into the flavours of white wine, cheese and tarragon, and those with an affinity for stews could try a curried goat, egusi beef, oxtail groundnut or the jombolo bean version. A fruit flan is a light, uncomplicated dessert that makes for a lovely finish to a meal at African Kitchen Gallery, so just choose a filling of tropical fruits like banana, mango, guava or papaya.

I finally made it to dinner there last night along with a fellow foodie whose birthday it was and oh boy, what a great experience we had! I'm a Nigerian and love the twist they add to traditional dishes, we left with our tongues tingling from the mix of various tastes and flavours. If you love hot pepper ask for their homemade extra hot sauce only brought out by special request, so delicious it was, my mouth is watering even as I type. The service was friendly and warm. I will definitely be recommending the restaurant to all my friends and patronising it for more than just take-aways.

A fantastic place - I went for lunch one Sunday and had one of the best meals I've ever eaten, for about £8. Incredible, in the centre of town. Unusual but not intimidating menu, friendly owner offered advice on dishes, lovely setting. Can't wait to go back - though I’ve heard Camden Council are threatening closure because there are too many restaurants on that street - unfair when there are about eight Indian restaurants and only one African one. I hope it stays open - it's great.
