Looks delicious! Can’t wait to dig in with my pals!
This looks awesome. I have been searching for this type of cuisine in the Chicagoland area because while I am here at school I have not been able find any place that serves African cuisine. I am used to my family’s homemade African cooking but will most certainly be open to giving this a try. Thanks for the recommendation and please keep us posted for more 🙂
It is really delicious Gabe. We were down there with a Mexican friend who enjoyed it. You definitely need to try and they have several other recipe. It you need more information or advice in chosing the menu let me know.
