The Jollof House - Chicken thigh jollof

The Jollof House

After making the long drive from Halifax to Charlottetown to join my wife while she was on a work…read moretrip, I was looking for something to eat that wasn't a chain restaurant, and Jollof House immediately piqued my interest. I had my fair share of West African food when I lived in Ottawa for several years, so it was a pleasant surprise to see a place that specialized in it in Charlottetown! I *had* to go with their namesake dish, and ordered the version with a chicken thigh. After placing the order online and a short wait, I had my food in hand and ate it in front of my hotel, happy to not be in my car, even if the view of traffic on Capital Drive was less than spectacular. The hefty container was loaded with jollof, and the rice a particularly dark shade of red from the tomato sauce and seasonings it was cooked in. Deeply savoury and flavourful, it didn't have the funk that some jollofs that I've had did, although a dollop of Ghanaian green chili sauce brought some serious heat, but also a bright vegetal flavour as well. The chicken thigh was a good size, and the skin was good and crispy. The tender meat was sparingly seasoned, especially compared to the jollof, but I eagerly devoured it after a long afternoon on the road. A slaw of chunky shreds of cabbage mellowed out the heat of the chili sauce, and added at least one vegetable to the dish. It's really great to see the food scene in the Maritimes evolve as more people come and enrich the culture, and Jollof House is a delicious piece of the tapestry that Charlottetown's culinary scene is becoming.
