Trying food in a foreign country is like speed dating for your taste buds. After a barrage of new flavours and spices, I'll admit, my tongue is feeling a little promiscuous. In a good way.
Here is a sample platter of my favourite suitors, so far:
 |
Red red and plantains: Perfect if you have afternoon to while away... Because this will put you to sleep. |
 |
Ampesi (Boiled yam), cassava and palaver sauce - Yummy. |
 |
Jollof rice (of course) and plantains. |
 |
Omo Tuo (Rice balls) and groundnut soup - perfect whenever, wherever. |
 |
Fan Ice. Because a dessert isn't a dessert unless you suck it out of a bag. |
But the ultimate winner has to be: the egg sandwich.
Surprising, I know. But once you've tried one of these delicious offerings from the lovely ladies of Labone, you'll never look back. Best sandwiches in the world? Probably an understatement.

The Ryan Gosling of the sandwich world. |
