Today we'll be visiting Sierra Leone to find out about their cuisine. Locals are of course as always welcome to explain to us what we're seeing.

After our last thread about Uganda I have been contacted by the Sierra Leone Tourism Board© to help promote their cuisine on /ck/ on 4chan to attract tourists.

Pic related, the restaurant is called The Clubhouse in a city called Makeni.

Let's move to a different city, called Bo.

You quickly realize that there aren't that many restaurants from Sierra Leone on google maps. And even less where the customers have uploaded photos of the food.
I also noticed that in Sierra Leone, people love to upload photos of themselves to these restaurants, so there are a bunch of pics of people, but most often they're not even eating.
I can go to Freetown (the capital), but in the big cities it's always just burgers, pizza, fries, or the big fast food chains etc; i.e. boring.

Ok, so I checkeed out all the different larger cities that aren't Freetown (Bo, Kenema, Gehama, Koidu, and Kabala), and they have nothing much to offer to us regarding restaurant pics.

So now we'll go for the low hanging fruit and go to Freetown and look at a place called Kadco SL Limited...

More than likely, it's watered down moonshine with a bunch of caffeine (either kola nut or purified coffee extract).
Basically, it's the giganigga (heh) version of the original Four Loko recipe.

facebook took a job description (poorly dressed domestic at rich white people's houses uptown) from an account i made fifteen years ago and somehow after years and years of development, turned it into a business page that is frequented by Nigerians that use the chat to meet up. i get email notifications to my spam about their activity because i am technically the sole administrator of that account.

Yeah, the bits and pieces I found looked great, it's just that not many people take photos of food in restaurants there and upload them to google. I'll go to a different continent next time around.
I will say that African countries, their dishes, their menus, the overall comfy vibes have made for some great conversations here. And hilarious comments.
