The best of travel part of travel for me is trying new foods.
When I first arrived in Lagos, Nigeria my friend +tope akinmade took me to Tastee Fried Chicken. My driver Mustapha and I would go there every morning like many Lagosians to pick up breakfast and lunch. Even though the food is fried, it is still closer to a home-cooked meal than traditional American fast food. Check out the Tastee Fried Chicken website. Does this look like Popeye's or McDonald's to you?
I enjoyed jollof rice, fried rice, and red rice with chicken or Crocker fish. I was really missing vegetables until I found this Chicken Salad at Tastee Fried Chicken.
It consist of shredded cabbage, carrots, corn, tomatoes, eggs, lettuce and diced chicken. It is delicious.
I think that Nigerian fast food is very healthy despite the fried foods, it is much fresher than American fast foods. The drink of choice is juice instead of sodas.
