Yum Village is a new Cleveland restaurant that features West African and Caribbean food.
It’s at 2215 Chester, right across from Cleveland State University. We spoke with one of the owners Carasai Ihentuge who said there are 2 Yum Villages in his hometown of Detroit.
Most of the food in the 2,400-square-foot space is non-GMO and vegan, but meat and chicken dishes are offered. Most are not very spicy.
Carasai’s father is from Lagos, Nigeria and he grew up eating this food.
For us meat lovers, try the Flip Village Combo which is Mango Curry Chicken with Ginger Curry Chickpeas and White Potato Flips over a bed of delicious Coconut Rice or the DJ Village Combo which is Jezebel Peach Honey Mustard Chicken over Turmeric Rice served with Truffle Oil Greens and White Potato Flips. Neither is spicy.
Watch Carasai talk about the restaurant and the food.
