LATHA, Swahili for flavor, celebrates Africa and the diaspora’s rich and diverse cuisines. The menu curated by Executive Chef Digby Stridiron honors the interconnected journey of the foodways and culture of Africa, Brazil, the Caribbean, and the Southern United States. Our contemporary pan-African kitchen respects historical recipes and crafts cuisine from thoughtfully sourced seasonal ingredients that reveal the connections between Africa and the diaspora. It is a journey of discovery along the trails of our ancestors, telling the authentic stories of the foodways and how they have shaped eating habits and cuisine worldwide. We invite guests to join us on a flavorful journey of discovery and appreciation. LATHA, in downtown Phoenix, in Heritage Square, is a place to have a shared immersive experience with friends or family while enjoying food, drinks, music, and culture in our dining room, bar, or outside patio. As a collective, we EAT, DRINK, and VIBE!
Pourquoi ce sont des Perles rares
Chef de cuisine : Digby Stridiron
D'après les éditeur·rices d'OpenTable : LATHA signifie « saveur » en swahili, et lorsque cet établissement a ouvert ses portes en 2023, il a fait connaître toute la diversité culinaire de la diaspora africaine vivant au Brésil, dans les Caraïbes et dans le sud des États-Unis, attirant ainsi l'attention du magazine Phoenix et de l'hebdomadaire The Infatuation. Le menu va du poulet frit et des gaufres au rhum et à la banane aux queues de bœuf barbacoa, que l'on déguste de préférence sous le porche de cette demeure historique où se produisent régulièrement des chanteur·euse·s et des musicien·ne·s.
