West African dishes served by Adena's Catering

Ghanaian Wedding & Event Catering in the UK

Waakye, kelewele, red red and banku with light soup — our Ghanaian dishes bring comforting, familiar flavours to weddings, engagements and family celebrations across the UK.

Ghanaian favourites on your menu

Choose Ghanaian soups and sides as part of any Signature Experience. Kelewele works beautifully as a canapé, while Light Soup, Palm Nut Soup and Groundnut Soup pair with Banku or Fufu.

Our Nigerian & Ghanaian Celebration suggestion brings both traditions together for couples whose families share a love of West African food.
