Here are ten (10) different ways you can enjoy your garri (cassava flakes) including the places where they are taken that way.
 |
Banana Island |
They don’t normally drink this, but when they do… there must be a full animal involved.
 |
Abule Egba |
They drink their garri without any condiments. If you see three days old ewa goin to drink with your garri in Abule Egba, ma’ ka thank God.
 |
FESTAC |
Thanks to the hundreds of akara sellers on mile 2 axis. People living along that route combine everything with akara. Even garri.
 |
Gbagada |
Everything about Gbagada people is packaging. Even they way they serve their garri and common moimoi. That’s a N65 food looking like a meal of N500.
 |
Ikeja GRA |
Ikeja GRA people want to be different so bad, even when they are drinking their garri with standard miscellaneous items like groundnut and coconut.
 |
Ikoyi |
Ikoyi people are selective. They won’t drink their garri except it is served with suya from Glover Court. Garri, suya and tomatoes. What an elitist combination!
 |
Maryland |
They don’t want their garri to look like the regular Mainland people garri so they drink a cup of milk with two teaspoon full of garri.
 |
Lekki |
Lekki people like to show off. When garri is on the menu, they have it in the Lekki style. ‘Garri, fried chicken and a glass of Dom Perignon wine.
 |
UNILAG |
This is a standard dinner in UNILAG. Sometimes it is served with groundnut, other days cold water without groundnut. On bad days, they drink water and chew dry garri later.
 |
LASU |
The difference between UNILAG people garri and LASU people garri is the latter would leave theirs to swell so it can hold belle all day. This is a full day meal in LASU.
So, how do you like your garri? I know all of us reading this do it the Abule Egba style but its okay to dream.
