A celebration of East African 
food & culture

Bringing the vibrant flavors of East Africa to Detroit, Baobab Fare is a restaurant founded by refugees from Burundi that embodies the spirit of “Detroit Ni Nyumbani” — Detroit is Home.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: "Chopped" winner Hamissi Mamba and his wife Nadia Nijimbere, both refugees from Burundi, pay tribute to the food from their homeland at this bright, community-driven East African spot. The multi-James Beard Award-nominated couple make hearty dishes like slow-simmered beef with fried plantains (nyumbani) alongside fellow refugees. Pro tip: a jar of the fiery habanero pepper hot sauce pili makes for a great memento from the meal.
