Spice by CMB pairs bold African and Caribbean flavors with warm hospitality, standout braised oxtails, and a lively bar scene nearby.
Ama is a huge step for Pearl & Law Hospitality, run by husband and wife team Nyacko Pearl Perry and Biplaw Ra (who is Nepalese). The name of the restaurant means "mother" in Nepalese, and the restaurant is an homage to those who cook and care for people. It's also a reference to Rai's mother, Saraswati, who is a prep cook at Comfort Kitchen and takes care of the restaurant team and her family in equal measure.
