There is an East African (Kenyan) restaurant in Columbia City – Safari Njema Restaurant. I’ve never been there, but friends of mine have enjoyed it. Hopefully they have what you’re looking for.
Mama Sambusa Kitchen is over in that area too, 20 minutes away. 8319 Wabash Ave S, Seattle, WA 98118. I miss the Senegalese food at La Teranga, which was great — but the little restaurant didn’t survive the pandemic.
