I am beginning to nurture the thought on what I would do when I run out of this my naija foodstuffs that I brought with me. Yes call me a foodie

I don't even want to think about it...

I don't like oyinbo food at all... I have tried a lot of 'em and nothing tastes as good as jollof rice and plantain, efo riro, ogbono and poundo , moin moin!

I love cooking my own food my way, I got used to that since my university days in naija & it is now more of a hobby.

Going to London just to buy egusi or ogbono is not even worth it at all. There are a few halal (asian/pakistani) shops around that sell some things like okra, but no garri or elubo or egusi.

My days of eating sandwiches and casseroles don dey load small small. Don't pity me, na me wan come obodo oyibo.

I was in London last week for 2 nights on training. I had a strong craving for jollof rice and goat meat, but unfortunately, the nearest African restaurant to my hotel was a Ghanaian restaurant. So, I decided to try out the Ghanaian version of jollof rice as I had no choice.

It was the worst jollof rice and goat meat I have ever tasted, completely tasteless, soaked in palm oil and the smell was horrendous. I pity the hotel cleaners who had to deal with the smell in the room afterwards. The attached picture doesn't do justice to the overpriced rubbish they call Ghanaian jollof rice and goat meat, I wouldn't feed it to my dog if I had one.

I have made a mental note to avoid Ghanaian restaurants in London from now on.

UKmigrant:
The same way Ghanians dey always try shade naija jollof. I hope you sha enjoyed the plantain.

OP caused it. His response was not fair to the poster who "advised" him, yet from the start he agreed for "unnecessary" comments to be posted. So why indirectly insult someone when you agreed to see divergent views? That's hypocritical. No doubt, Justwise has his issues, but on this, I support his actions. OP goofed!

But then, I dey follow the thread like Twitter.

suxes2005:


This is very simple.

Mod said trolls should stay off, op said they should come (thinking he has speech of freedom ). Lol

They came, op gave em a piece of his mind. Mod later came with bloated ago; cos of first punch from op he threatened fire and brimstone

Op didn't give in. Mod moved a great topic to general niche for general consumption.

Why?

because op indirectly told mod to let him handle trolls but mod felt insultive and waited for trolls to come ....

You don't know how well this thread would have some people in the travel section.

Bye here we are. Doing general things like a general citizen

SHALOM

Bollove:
@Justwise though I do not fault you but this

The troll didn't give any advice but a blame. I dey memory serves me right, he said buying this and that, going to Naija party and getting a credit card � is not a good way to start in U.K.

That's more of a blame / judgement.

Lol afam might be a yellow dude ooo. Lol.

Bollove:
U are correct but that is what Op promised justwise to manage and also learn from

UKmigrant:
Troll alert!

9iceDaniel:

Can you define troll?

UKmigrant:
I'm too tired to define anything right now. Eba on my mind

Safiaa:
Ey ya. Always check the reviews online first before spending your money. They never lie.

comradespade:




Reviews on jollof rice? tell me you are joking

UKmigrant:
She meant the reviews for the restaurant I think. There are usually such reviews for popular restaurants, hotels, bars, churches etc online.

comradespade:




Reviews on jollof rice? tell me you are joking

Safiaa:
Yeah of course.

comradespade:

lmao

Fish123:

comradespade:



Lol... I know you ain't sure about what you are saying. How could/would a local African restaurant have a review about a dish? How are sure the whole restaurant have its own review?

lmao

Safiaa:
Im very sure about what im saying. Most restaurants have reviews online about their food, even 'local' african restaurants. Type in the name of the restaurant on google.

comradespade:




I've heard you but, I'm not concurring with it

Safiaa:
Lol Okay

comradespade:




Are you a lover of adventure or you reside in the UK?

comradespade:



Oga mi, the thing dey make me laff oo

comradespade:




Oooohhh... It might not be one famous restaurant. Moreover, it's an African restaurant. (What do I know)
