Learn from Esi. The food you eat at Imperial Peking will likely be eaten with chopsticks or a fork and knife, no? So if she disqualifies you for a faux pas, tough! But if you disqualify me for eating Gari Fortor with my fingers, I will refuse to be fired. I will quit!The Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618359074984443470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564356874518161776.post-40546928709942972542009-09-24T08:00:52.663+00:002009-09-24T08:00:52.663+00:00Lol, Mazy, Garden egg stew paaa.

It may seem strange to some people at first but after a while, everyone accepts that u will eat anything with your hands. Not a big deal. I write about the pleasures of eating with the hands, pot expertly balanced between thighs, Ghana style here:http://maameous.blogspot.com/2008/08/on-being-ghanaian-i-invitation-to-meals.htmlEsi Cleland Yanksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12878505768152174019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564356874518161776.post-25636692196599731362009-09-23T07:52:28.756+00:002009-09-23T07:52:28.756+00:00hahaha...certain things you can't ignore the h...hahaha...certain things you can't ignore the hands. For me baku and fufu are supposed to be eaten with the hands. These overdoing of the Western culture. We feel shy our friends would spot us, that they would say something against us. I have always maintained, it's always not about what others say against you but what you feel within you that matters.ImageNationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06021414643103601330noreply@blogger.com
