Today we had a little extra time to kill because we were waiting for the cabling guys to do their thing. So we went to a local restaurant to eat local food. There is a pasty dish called fufu, which has no taste to speak of so you dip it in a soup before you eat it for flavor. You're not supposed to chew the fufu; just swallow. I couldn't do that, though, and it got stuck in my teeth like gum. They also had some fish soup but I wasn't too interested. I had the "goat light soup" instead. It wasn't bad but I think I will stick to eating at the Western restaurants! Oh, and it was super cheap. We fed six people lunch for about USD $30.
