KEK Donates to Korle Bu Child Oncology Unit

As part of its 35th Anniversary celebrations, KEK Insurance Brokers has donated GHS 40,000 in cash and GHS 10,000 worth of educational supplies to the Korle Bu Child Oncology Unit through Lifeline for Childhood Cancer Ghana (LCCG).

The donation was made during a visit by KEK’s Managing Director, Executive Committee, and staff, who engaged with young patients and toured the unit, including a 40-bed complex currently under construction to boost pediatric oncology care.

This gesture reflects the philanthropic legacy of their late founder Mr. Kwesi Essel-Koomson and their commitment to supporting the vulnerable in the society.

KEK, a signatory to the UN Global Compact, encourages other stakeholders to support the completion of the facility and contribute to improving outcomes for children battling cancer.

Inside ASANA Bar and Kitchen – Accra’s New Elite Asian- Fusion Restaurant

 New Asian-Ghanaian bar and restaurant opens at five-star luxury hotel in Accra

 

Accra, 4 June 2025 – The new ASANA Bar and Kitchen serves a refined take on Asian-fusion cuisine in the heart of Accra. At an exclusive two-day opening event, it previewed the new dining spaces and eateries of its latest culinary venue. In attendance were high-profile delegates, famous personalities and some of the nation’s top food influencers.

 

The latest addition to the ever-evolving culinary scene at Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City Accra, the sophisticated space offers both indoor and outdoor seating for up to 104 guests and is located near the iconic spiral staircase of the hotel’s grand lobby. Surrounded with palms and potted plants, guests are welcomed into an elegant yet relaxed environment, where contemporary and natural design elements harmoniously converge.

 

 

 

A pristine, textured, white marble bar with distinct vining marks the centre of ASANA Bar and Kitchen, accented by suspended ornate pendant lamps and vibrant red bar stools. Inside, guests can sit at the striking 360-degree marble counter bar or at the cosy lounge area and enjoy a uniquely curated cocktail menu that explores flavours and cultures from the East and West.

 

Outdoors, the open-air restaurant offers views of the cascading waterfall and greens of the Cedar Garden and blends Asian-inspired dishes with Ghanaian flair, using locally sourced ingredients to create a vibrant and balanced fusion. Guests can expect an experience that is both adventurous and comforting, from small bites to signature plates.

 

‘Every dish at ASANA tells a story,’ said Felix Otte, Director of Food & Beverage at Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City Accra. ‘Our culinary team has taken great care to balance bold, familiar Ghanaian tastes with subtle Asian nuances. It is a fusion that is exciting, yet deeply respectful of both cultures.’

 

 

One menu standout is the Watermelon Gochujang starter that pairs avocado mousse and chilli vinaigrette with watermelon – a dessert fruit widely enjoyed in Ghana. Other unique items on the menu include a delightful Baked Miso Salmon, Pork Bulgogi Quesadillas and a refreshing sorbet dessert made of yams.

 

To commemorate the launch and the hotel’s ten-year anniversary, ASANA also introduced a signature cocktail – Afe Du – meaning ‘Ten Years’ in Twi, a variety of the Akan language spoken in Ghana. Crafted by the bar’s mixology team, the cocktail combines local infusions with international spirits for a flavour that is both celebratory and symbolic.

 

 

Ultimately, the expertise of its service team sets ASANA Bar and Kitchen apart from other dining venues in the city. The waiters and bartenders at ASANA are extensively trained in the food and beverage offerings and can recommend pairings, provide insight into flavour profiles and share the inspiration behind each dish or cocktail. Guests are welcomed with warmth, knowledge and professionalism, making ASANA as much about connection as it is about the cuisine.

 

‘ASANA represents the culmination of a decade of delivering exceptional moments to our guests, and we wanted to celebrate this milestone with a concept that honours our Ghanaian roots while embracing global inspiration,’ said Hanno Barkhoff, General Manager of Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City Accra. ‘It is not just a bar or an à la carte restaurant but a reflection of who we are as a hotel and how we continuously evolve our food and beverage offerings.’

 

ASANA Bar and Kitchen is now open to the public. While the restaurant requires reservations, the bar warmly welcomes walk-ins and invites both hotel guests and residents to unwind, indulge and celebrate life’s little luxuries.

Burn Design Hub Joins AmCham Ghana

AmCham Ghana welcomes Burn Design Hub as our newest NGO member. Burn Design is a nonprofit organization headquartered in the United States, with a country office in Ghana. The organization is deeply committed to addressing the global issue of unsafe cooking practices that affect over two billion people. In many developing communities, women cook over open fires—often indoors—putting themselves and their families at risk of toxic smoke inhalation. This daily struggle not only endangers their health but also consumes time and energy that could be spent on education, work, or rest.

Through innovation and collaboration, Burn Design Lab is working to change this reality. They focus on designing and supporting the production of cleaner, more efficient cookstoves tailored to the needs of women who rely on open fires for cooking. By partnering with manufacturers, they help scale the production of environmentally conscious stoves, aiming to improve health, reduce hardship, and enhance the quality of life for countless families. Their impact is measured by the number of households reached and the tangible improvements in women’s health, wellbeing, and economic opportunities. AmCham Ghana looks forward to supporting Burn Design Hub’s mission and amplifying their impact across the region.
