African cuisine in Geneva

African Food in Geneva: Nyama Choma, Yassa & Peri-Peri

Grills and slow-cooked classics from East and West Africa — halal-certified, at Copperleaf in Pâquis.

Our African menu

Bold grills and comforting stews

Africa’s cooking is as diverse as the continent itself. At Copperleaf we focus on dishes our guests love to share: East African nyama choma mixed grill, Senegal’s tangy poulet yassa, peri-peri jumbo prawns with roots in Mozambique, and hearty beef stew with potatoes and carrots.

Every dish is halal-certified and can be paired with sides of fried banana, fries or ugali, the maize staple of East Africa.

Dishes to try

African dishes explained

Nyama choma

Swahili for “grilled meat” — Kenya and Tanzania’s celebration dish. Ours combines beef steak, lamb and chicken.

Poulet yassa

A Senegalese favourite: chicken in a tangy sauce of slow-cooked onions and lemon, served with rice.

Peri-peri

A chilli, garlic and citrus sauce from southern Africa. We pair it with grilled jumbo prawns.

Ugali

A smooth maize-flour staple eaten across East Africa — perfect for scooping up stews.
