Our Story

RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS AND THE PROVERBIAL GHANAIAN HOSPITALITY

Our founder affectionately known as "Auntie Delight" decided to do some good and serve her specially prepared kenkey meals for free at a church organized medical outreach for underprivileged communities in Achimota and Adabraka.

Her kenkey became the talk of town. Seeing the opportunity for a better prepared, hygienic alternative to the declining quality of kenkey on the market, Gold Coast Kenkey was born. Gold Coast Kenkey combines their well prepared  kenkey balls with an innovative palette of fantastic accompaniments including hake fish, fingerlings, shrimp, sardine, chicken, omelettes, chicken stew, okro stew and more. The name "Gold Coast" Kenkey alludes to the idea of  originality and the quality of gold which speaks of excellence. Literally speaking, kenkey the way it used to be in the good old days.
