Hello Friends,

Living in a country with over 370 tribes and over 500 languages, you will know there are over a thousand local meals and your taste buds will become very confused as to what tastes great, what is okay, and what is simply delicious.

Before i move on, let's have a bite of Akara(Bean Cake) below:

How will you feel if I take you on a tour here in my Country to Show you the kinds of Food we have?

If I were you I wouldn’t reject that offer, I would Simply Accept it, do you know why?

Because Someday, you might Visit here, Oh yes, I'm talking about Nigeria. You may, you never Can tell.

Food is one way to identify a culture. If you must Know, Nigeria is one of the world's most ethnically diverse countries, I don't know if that really makes sense to you, but that's the truth.

And here is what it is made of below.

The Hausa and Yoruba make up around 26.9% of the populace; the Igbo/Ibo, 23.1%; the Fulani, around 14.1%; and Ibibio, 6.4%. The other group makes up the extra 29.5%.
Did I tell you?, I am under that 6.4%, that’s the Ibibio.

Trust me, I do not even know where to start when it comes to the local food, but one thing is for sure, all these meals are super amazing and your taste buds will get confused when it comes to the local foods in Nigeria.

The number of local foods is infinite, ranging from the street foods like Akara, roasted corn, suya, bole (roasted plantain), dodo (fried plantain), okra, fried yam, agidi, edible worm, moimoi (bean cake), kuli-kuli, kilish, puff puff, etc. I haven't even mentioned half of it because they are many.

Moving on to the local ethnic foods, I can't even list them because their numbers are large, but here are a few: Using (pounded yam), Jollof Rice, Abacha, Ewa Riro (beans porridge), Bitterleaf soup, Banga soup, garri, porridge yam.

The most famous Nigerian meal is probably jollof rice, but the cuisine has so much more to offer, especially with its abundance of intensely flavored soups and stews, as well as equally plentiful vegetables.

When visiting Nigeria, you must taste this traditional cuisine that is served in several West African countries. However, we must issue a warning!
Prepare to get involved in a friendly battle between Nigeria and Ghana over who creates the best Jollof rice.

You can't look at local food without reviewing the local ingredients they use to make this turn out amazing, ranging from different cultures and tribes. There are so many local ingredients that make this food great, like palm oil, iru(locust beans), akanwu(potash), crayfish, pepper, ogiri(fermented sesame seeds or egusi seeds) etc.

The unforgettable, spicy-filled taste of the soup or the well-seasoned taste of the stew.

How about the rich culture-filled taste of tribal food or the delicious party jollof rice is more than just a local dish; it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience you will never forget.

I cannot talk about all these mouth-watering local dishes and forget the rich, flavor-filled taste of their local drink that is always ready to accompany these local dishes.

_{Palm Wine}

We also have palm wine, I can’t tell if you have Such in your Zone, but if you do, then you are blessed too, I mean all of us are blessed.

Different locations, and different Food, they all make life Sweet too.

Hopefully, I will get to review these different Foods based on the region we have here in Nigeria, I am pretty much Sure, that this will give you a clear Understand of what you Should expect before entering Nigeria.

With Just 8 steems, you can have a plate of each of those food above.

I already know what to expect if I am visiting Indonesia because my friend @irawandedy has to Utilize his time to give all of us a review about the food over there and some fine locations as we can See here through his Publication entitled: FOOD REVIEW | Quantum Coffee & Brasserie - Favorite Place With Delicious Menu

Is it Pakistan? @huzaifanaveed1 has done that too by telling us about the food there through his post entitled: FOOD REVIEW || KAYBEES || SOME QUALITY FOOD, in case you want to pay a visit to Pakistan.

I know in the future my great and Caring Friends from Germany @chriddi and @weisser-rabe will also give me a clue of what food looks like over there.

While in Ukraine, I will like to know from my Engineer Friend @o1eh.
