Amara Diallo
Oslo, Norway
Born in Dakar, cooking from the soul. I bring the warmth of West African hospitality to Oslo's chilly evenings. Food is my love language.
About Me
Chef, storyteller, and mother of three. I grew up watching my grandmother cook thieboudienne over open fire in Dakar. Now I share those flavors with the world from my Oslo kitchen.
Cooking Style
Traditional West African with seasonal Norwegian ingredients. Slow cooking, bold spices, generous portions.
Culinary Philosophy
Food is memory. Every dish I cook carries the spirit of my homeland and the love of family.

Just came back from 3 months offshore and this was exactly what I needed. Real food, real conversation, real hospitality. Amara is a natural host. The yassa poulet appetizer was a surprise bonus.

Absolutely breathtaking evening. Amara's thieboudienne is the best thing I've eaten in Norway. She told us stories about Dakar markets while we cooked together. The fish was perfectly spiced, the rice was fluffy and fragrant. I felt like I was transported to West Africa. 5 stars isn't enough.

The most memorable meal I've had in Oslo. Amara's Thieboudienne was absolutely stunning — rich, fragrant, and cooked with so much love. She made us feel like family.
