Restaurants cuisine du monde Abidjan

Parisian friends, you will not be disoriented by this Art Deco setting with woodwork and dimmed lights that served as a set for the 2013 film Les Rayures du Zèbre with Benoît Poelvoorde. This restaurant is frequented by expatriates and the local bourgeoisie. The Italian trattoria offers a divine risotto with foie gras and oyster mushrooms and a homemade tiramisu to die for. On the French side, various seafood specialties and iodized platters are recommended, as are the meats (Chateaubriand steak, pork shank...). Warm welcome.

The Bushman café is a cultural bar, an art gallery, a hotel, but also a good restaurant. On the roof terrace, the garden-restaurant Le Wêlé offers poetic dishes: Sahel chicken or Gnamakou (with ginger), gaou burger, captain/merou/thon brochettes... In addition to the classics of Ivorian cuisine: sauces, braised fish and chicken, choukouya of kid or guinea fowl... and even klaklos with red oil and camel! Cherry on the attiéké: affordable prices and a trendy setting combining art, good music and nature.

The All-Abidjan frequents the "beach" of this scrubland: faroteurs, champagnards, starlets, diplomats, humanitarians, old bushmen. And the beautiful people: Macky Sall, Pelé, Stromae.... However, there is no VIP area: they are all housed in the same place, with their feet in the sand. We come here to taste "the best kebabs of Abidjan", beef, grouper, snail, fish or chicken braised with attiéké, yam or allocos fries, in generous portions. The wait may be excessive, but Ambroise may offer you the koutoukou or the bandaged wood as a digestive.

This top-of-the-range maquis opened in 1988 has become a veritable institution in the Ivorian gastronomic landscape, prized by both locals and expatriates alike. A la carte: Ivorian, African and European specialities worked with finesse and know-how, and homemade "signature" dishes such as rice with olives, garba du Val and grouper kebabs. In addition to its beautiful consistency and the homage it pays to the richness and variety of African terroirs, the Maquis du Val is distinguished by its peaceful and green setting in the heart of Cocody.

A historic address, open since 1965, Di Sorrento is set in the beautiful, lush garden of a villa. It consists of a central straw hut-bar, tables nestled under private ventilated apatams, their privacy carefully preserved by green hedges. In addition to the courteous welcome and diligent service, the plates are generous and the products very fresh. Our recommendations: pizzas - of course! -carpaccio, seafood mix-grill, lasagne, osso buco. La dolce vita à l'ivoirienne.

the "old-timer" Rallye opened 5 years before independence. With its "Papa's Africa" side, its tiled floor, old photos of Abidjan on the wall, its phlegmatic fans, its shady terrace, it attracts Papys Broussards never short of an anecdote or an anisette, Ivorian businessmen, tourists, civil servants... The waiters, just like the menu, have not changed for years, and offer a family cuisine of simple dishes (carpaccios, salads, bolognese).... at low prices and of a constant quality.

A Japanese restaurant that defends itself, even if he does not play the fashion card like his colleague Le. In any case, you will eat entirely honourable sushi at relatively reasonable prices (possibility of getting away from 10 000 or 15 000 FCFA meal). Most of the Osaka: A very welcoming boss, a typical Japanese piece, a panasian card (salads, soups, nems, skipped noodles, beef specialities, shrimp, chicken, sheep, pork and seafood, wide choice of sushi, sashimis, makis, temakis, futomakis, ura makis, California makis…), and the Sunday buffet, which never always. For 10 000 FCFA, you will have the choice between a wide variety of Asian specialties, consumables and renewed consumables as needed. Counsel: for a maximum of choice (and a minimum of gourmets pressing around the buffet), better arrive at around 12 pm.
