I give up!!

Na mumu dey follow their mouth.

The freshness matters since it is tied to the taste. Also, because you are in Lagos. If it were in Port-harcourt or Owerri, I wouldn't have mentioned it. The fresher the leaves, the tastier the soup. It is like eating a freshly prepared soup compared to a one week's one-week-old soup. She must have cooked it well. But because of home ties and my experience in camp then (the woman deceived me with her origin), I want to know where the cook comes from and has lived for a considerable period.


Editan is fantastic! Hopefully, a great cook does it for a first-timer like you. But it is way better than Afang due to health reasons. Takes long and is expensive, yes, but better overall.

Chai! I miss home o


Absolutely nothing appetising about sushi! Again, for first timers, I can understand. But it is just there, aka, bland, bland and bland. Well, after my culinary experiences, I am open to anything these days. The stomach has adjusted.


Yes, weight loss when eating Japanese meals happens alongside using the trains (climbing staircases and all), walking down the street etc. Interestingly, our women still have those lovely big yanshes. This thing is obviously genetic, else the backside should have slimmed down. But overall, you lose weight by eating Japanese dishes and doing things like them.

No idea about South Korean dishes, as I don't come across them often like the Chinese.


Na my friends carry me go one of those Indian restaurants and I fell in love with their dishes.

E say na the woman deceived me with her origin. Too funny.😂😂😂😂

Yeah, she cooked it well.

I love tasty and healthy soups and miss home too.

Anyways, I'm sincerely praying that my stomach adjusts well cos mehnnnn the restrictions.

Big yansh is in our genes, e nor fit really comot.

Oh that's really lovely to hear. I hope to try out their dishes some day.

pocohantas:
Edikan ikong is ugu + waterleaf.
Editan leaves are different. I don't know the name in English. But all their soups manage to look alike on the surface. Maybe because it is mostly the combination of two greens.

You can get fresh afang in major markets and if you see fresh one, you go know. Unfresh one dey take style bitter. There is à Friday market I get them. Women come with fresh farm produce to one bush market and my afang seller buys on Thursday evening to resell because they sell off quickly on Friday. If I miss it, I have to wait for another Friday. If I am lucky, I can see remainder on Saturday morning. 😂

No wonder, I didn't like the soup then. I'm not a big fan of water leaf. I don't even like water leaf soup.

So how 9-5ers like us wan see fresh afang leaf buy? When market days for veggies na Friday.

Oh chim!

pocohantas:
58 is more like it and to an 18yo girl.😘

Yes, that's more like it.

50 is a great age. After all, men age like fine wine.

Oby Ezekwesili is not ugly.

Gerrard59:
Then, I look forward to eating it.


Afang is delicious! No doubts about it. But there is another soup known as Editan, which is not as sweet as Afang, but healthier and medicinal. The cooking process is more tedious and longer than Afang. The price too is higher. For an inexplicable reason, I don't like eating Edikanikong after the day it has been prepared. Since you just got started with the soup, continue that way until you get used to it because the freshness of the Afang leaves is important, and I insist the cook's origin matters, to me at least.


Smells bad, but I ate it without issues. Sushi is just there. To me, nothing appetising about it. I understand the craving by those who haven't eaten it or lovers of anything Japanese who have never visited the country. But it is just there. A sushi restaurant was the first place I was taken to by the lab's secretary and a fellow student after I arrived in the city. To me, it seems the Chinese have better dishes (especially as a West African) compared to the Japanese, and they are easy to prepare. I have met a fellow Nigerian who has been here for almost a decade and does not know how to prepare Japanese meals because they are too tiny in portions (I agree wholeheartedly). Japanese dishes are good for weight loss.

It is actually good to try a dish at every given opportunity. I have eaten curry rice and vowed never to continue because it is just there. Rice and any of our soups are better. I look forward to eating Durian (a fruit), which smells bad. Interestingly, Mainland Chinese love it even though their cousins in Southeast Asia don't like it. I love Indian dishes.

Nice one!

Yeah, the afang Poco cooked was really nice. Maybe this is a sign for pocohantas to give me again so my taste bud doesn't lose the soup's memory.

What's special in using fresh afang leaves? And why does the cook's origin matter? I don't think it follows oh. Lol.

I've been hearing of this Editan soup but haven't eaten it yet. I can't remember how Edikanikong soup taste, I ate it as a child and really didn't like it.

Lol so nothing special about sushi? Wahalur.
It seems your stomach isn't sensitive, it must be nice. I have a sensitive stomach and I admire people that eat any/everything.

I've heard that Japanese meals ate idea for weight loss. Do you like South Korean cuisine?
I know a handful of them through watching their movies like Gimbap, Kimchi, Tteokbokki, Naengmyeon and Jajangmyeon.

I don't know much of Indian meals except Roti and Biryani, I think.

Gerrard59:
Thanks for the correction, as it has been modified. I was right to have added the question. I have eaten Banga from Delta, but I guess I have to eat it again to truly know the difference from its Akwa/Cross version.

Before now, trying dishes I was not brought up with was hard, but after eating Asian dishes, I am open to anything and everything. During my welcome party, I ate natto (fermented Japanese beans that has an unpleasant smell) and my prof was shocked.

So, henceforth, anything goes.

Lol no wahala.

Black soup is really nice and medicinal. Asides eba, I use it to eat rice or yam. Anytime I travel and visit home, my mum welcomes me with Black soup or Banga soup. They're my top favourite soups.

Generally, I'm not adventurous with food and quite a picky eater. I ate afang soup last year courtesy of Poco sending to me, I was skeptical of eating it but it was really nice. Since then, I've not eaten it because if I try a restaurant and it's not at par to what I tasted previously, I might dislike it. I have a very weird taste bud.

Fermented beans? Wowww. I could never. How about sushi? I can't wrap my head around eating raw fish.

pocohantas:
She is crashing out badly and she still dey the initial stage. Abeg help us advise her as a defense counsel. Someone needs to take her phone.

She is indeed crashing out badly. It's quite sad that the family doesn't have at least ONE respected elderly person that can mediate on the matter.

Lol maybe she dey find sho sho media pity.

Gerrard59:
I come across this news against my will.

My IG feed is full of music, women's quotes, clothes, animated movies.

Na NL front page dey give me all these irrelevant gists.

Gerrard59:
Black soup by Urhobo (am I correct that they "own" this soup?).

I ate Tuwo when I camped and went out to eat Amala at Amala Sky (that place still dey exist?) when I was in IB.

I look forward to trying more northern dishes.

Gerrard, quick modify your post make I nor blow your head with my gun.

Black soup is for Edo folks. Banga is for Delta region.

Gerrard59:
lol

When I saw the post on IG, I uttered, "This girl is stu*pd! Who asked you all this"

Oh you even follow the gists on IG? I don't have that energy. I'm tired of seeing her gists splattered on NL's front page. At this point, I'm irritated!

pocohantas:
😂😂😂😂😂😂

I'm tired tbh. The whole gist is messy and already run out of spicy ingredients.

Wrap it up already, Gina.

Ugh!

Happy Birthday to the 3rd wife. She does look like the virtuous Proverbs 31 woman.

MONEY247:
A blatant lie. Girls adore fair guys, many do not just admit it.
I know many fair guys girls run after like flies even without the guy showing interest. That's why many guys bleach their skin.

Girls can pretend like crazy...

I speak for myself alone but I'm not attracted to fair men.

@ the bolded. And that doesn't tell you that these men are suffering from inferiority complex/low self esteem?

Caaz:
Lamba from NECK nwoko


Nke A bu nke anyi.

Very good.

Sonnobax15:

Good one..

They are humans like every other person and they didn't ask to be born like the way they are.........

But then again,as a man,if you're looking for a banny who will give you peace of mind, just go for a dwarf girl.......I swear nobody go follow you drag that one . They are unique in their own way . I know what I'm talking about here

I think this is quite an insensitive joke.

Gerrard59:
You see am! It is the reason I insist men are the cause of everything.

A man who loves sex should marry a lady who adores it. Going ahead to marry a lady who is a Mary Amaka or Deeper Lifeish babe is being on the road to misery. It is a major reason I am not fazed about virgins and try to stay away from ladies who have explicitly stated that they don't like sex or find it annoying/tiring.

I jump and pass!

😂😂😂😂😂😂

I also think they also factor in other criterias when choosing their spouse.

GloriousGbola:
the whole business of exes is not quite that straightforward. more a case of thinking the grass is greener where you did not plant it. unfortunate truth across the world is that most women change radically once they have children and the children become the center of their existence. no guarantee that the exe would not have also changed.

a funny multilayered story of when we were on site for a project and the engineer in charge had to start going home late. this man had married a second wife not so long ago and the woman started getting extremely jealous. it was very funny. the woman assumed her husband was messing round and looking for wife no 3, and there was nothing the man could do to convince her otherwise. he said we are working in optimo relay and she responded, that optimo na asha-w-o woman. anyways - my boss, who was incidentally also p***y whipped by his own second wife said a lot of things, but one thing he said - once the man gives the woman pikin all this will die down and she will not have his time anymore.

You are right, however there are still women that have sex after childbirth and enjoy it.

I'm very aware that caring for children takes a toll on women and tanks their libido but one thing is certain, if there's no stress and she's very much relaxed, pvssy is sure especially if she enjoys sex with her partner.

Gerrard59:
That is why I am of the opinion that the side chics are winning. A side chic who means and knows business would win way more than the man's wife. Bimbo Akintola also mentioned the bold a few weeks ago: these men marry women they are not sexually compatible all in the name of wife material, now they pursue side chic upandown.

Nigerian men gave the upper power to their side chicks and I like the fact that these women make money off their heads since they're brainless.

I have married colleagues who complain about their wives denying them sex, anytime I inquire about their exes, their eyes shine and they begin to narrate the good ol' days. It raised my curiosity to what made them marry their current partners and of course, the person was ready, or a virgin and a religious person. No substance whatsoever.

It is why I like my generation, Gen Z, we like what we like, good or bad and go for it.

Jman06:
Stop saying the average Nigerian man please. Instead, say primitive Nigerian man. I don't think any modern Nigerian man wouldn't want his wife to be sexually expressive in bed because that's where the fun is. As far as I am concerned, there's no fun in the act if the woman cannot express her needs in bed. It becomes monotonous and boring if she just lays there without participating.

😂😂😂😂😂

I think the problem here is people not going for what they want especially Nigerian men.

They like sex a lot but would go for women who have low libido/not sexually expressive and then complain later citing the woman gives them peace of mind whereas the heart want what it wants.

Anyways, I think the solution is for like-minded people to follow themselves for a happy home.
