Òkpa is well loved in enugu state. Anambra prefer moimoi than òkpa. Its foreign to imo and abia. Also I prefer how anambra make òkpa than the enugu type. It's sweeter and really soft.

There are two bole sellers somewhere in lekki that are really good. One came from PH to set up that business with his mum. Bole is another thing I feel is overhyped, but that’s probably because I am not into plantain. I eat the fish with the sauce and I move.

mariahAngel:


True true sha, boli is just a just there street food/snack in Lagos...especially with groundnut. But since PH people (including my brothers wey school there) no gree us hear word about their famous bole and fish got me wondering whether there's more to it o.

There's more to it. Plenty sef



A "a complete" plate of PH boli every afternoon and I will be yours forever. If you like disrespect me anyhow.

First time I had a good taste of Boli was in Calabar, then I visited Bayelsa and its almost the same.

But then I was in PH and tasted theirs and............. Words can describe it.


It's like no other.

pocohantas:


Sometimes it is acquired taste. I like the yam chips and grilled turkey/chicken wings from Papa’s Grill, but my friend said it is just there. You can imagine how I felt.

By the way, I know it is easier said that done, Ignore that element following you upandan. A lot of them crave our attention so badly but because we give it to them on a platter, we don’t know this.

Fine morning, Charlie.

Of course i haven't. That was why i asked. I've had yam before but not the type laced with oil and fish. I've been salivating at your reply.

FashionCookie:

Okay...
I like eating yam...whether roasted o, fried o, boiled o...I just like yam. Grew up in the west, so started eating roasted yam quite
early and it's a common roadside thing there.
