The city of Calabar is well known for its beautiful, tasty, and mouth watering dishes. The main Calabar dish, Edika-Ikong, is arguably the most sought-after in Nigeria. Would you like to taste meals rich in vegetables, bush meat, and seafood? If you do, the Calabar cuisine tour is for you. You’ll enjoy meals like fish pepper soup, Afang soup, Edika-Ikong soup, Editan soup, along with Isi Ewu (spiced Goat head), roasted plantain, or pounded yam.
Along with our friendly guide, you’ll dig into attractive meals, made from a mix of edible leaves, cowhide (Ponmo), crayfish, dry fish, snails, stockfish, periwinkles, prawns, and a whole lot more. You’ll be licking your fingers so much you may not have much washing to do after the meal.
For vegetarians, there’s Efo, made from spinach and spices. It can be eaten with rice or pounded yam. To wash it all down, as locals love to say, you may have the locally made fresh palm wine, or other alcoholic or nonalcoholic drinks.
