Our Signature Jollof Rice. 🍚🔥 
Bold, vibrant, and rooted in generations of West African culinary tradition.
Our Signature Jollof Rice begins with Obe Ata: the rich pepper and tomato base that gives the dish its unmistakable depth of flavor and beautiful color. From there, every layer is built with intention, technique, and respect for tradition.
This is more than rice. It’s one of the dishes that tells our story.
This is just a preview. 
🎥 This Friday, we’re taking you In The Kitchen with Neutral Ground as Chef Kenyatta Ashford shows how our Signature Jollof Rice comes together.

Sharing our Ghanaian Red Red with your guests and community was an honor, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to cook alongside a restaurant that shares our passion for bringing people together through food.
Thank you to everyone who joined us!
Here’s to celebrating culture, collaboration, and the connections that happen around the table. We can’t wait to do it again. 📷:

In the Kitchen with Neutral Ground | Vol. 2

This week, Chef Kenyatta takes us behind our Signature Mussels & Red Stew Curry. This dish was inspired by one of the first kitchens where he began his culinary journey and reimagined through the bold flavors of West Africa.
From the rich broth to the balance of Obe Ata, lemongrass, ginger, and coconut milk, this is a look at the intention behind every bite. 
What dish should we take you behind the scenes of next?

A signature dish should tell you something about the chef. 
Our Mussels & Red Stew Curry reflects Chef Kenyatta’s culinary journey. It draws inspiration from one of the first kitchens where he honed his craft and reimagines it through the bold flavors of West Africa with obe ata, lemongrass, ginger, and coconut milk. 
This weekend, we’re taking you into the kitchen as Chef Kenyatta shares the inspiration, technique, and story behind every ingredient. Stay tuned.
