We had a sample of some local dishes and it was quite fun. As we gathered, what you see above is a cuisine that has its roots with the natives of Rivers State, Nigeria. Core ingredients for this meal, as prepared by this restaurant is as follows:
This meal is usually presented with pounded yam, semi or any (what we call) swallow. It is referred to as the sea food meal of Rivers’ state and has been made common in the southern part of the country (Nigeria).
My personal favourite for the day!
This is Afang, a popular vegetable-like cuisine made popular all over the country from its origin in Cross River, Nigeria. It can be referred to as a healthy meal and in this restaurant, they have its core ingredients as follows:
This is usually served just like the native soup. It is a must try.
