African meal 🍴

There are certain foods nigerians miss most when living abroad. Although these foods are not necessarily our favorites but they remind us of our fatherland and it is no wonder we get sad when alternative foods do not meet up the original ones in taste and appearance.
This meal in the picture is called Nkwobi, a cooked spicy cow leg. It's a very popular traditional deserts in western Nigeria. Most men visit igbo restaurants on Friday nights to enjoy this meal (Nkwobi).
Even though exotic foods are delicious and enjoyable, once in a while some of these foods can make you feel rootless and home sick. Making some Nigerian folks living abroad eager to return home. You'll never find such a meal in any other part of the world. I guess that's why they say there's no place like home PicsArt_02-02-04.15.38.jpg
