Sweet Home
Na true our elders talk say, “East or West, Home is the best”.
As una know say most if no be all, of our players dey play Pro
for Europe, by so means say na burger, pizza dem go dey whack most
of the time, apart from Mr Kanu, as Gisters dey see am for Naija
joints in London. But these boys show say dem never forget “eba,
akpu, amala” and other Nigerian delicacies. |
| In fact na the captain
of the team Jay Jay Okocha lead by example, as menu menu
come begin. The chef come first do oyinbo style, dey serve leaves
for appetizer, na im make Jay Jay ask for proper naija food and
the rest join in. As the hot pounded yam with egusi soup land for
him table, Jay Jay show say no be for only the field of play he
fit dribble but also inside plate as he demolish the pounded yam
like say na England defence he dey deal with. We hope say
NFA carry enough cassava follow these boys go Japan o, because e
be like say na the food go give dem extra energy. |

There is still room for improvement, we just hope you no go leave

Hotel, Funmi Lewis for the wonderful, delicious and belleful food
wey she treat our Eagles and the rest of us to on the night, as

intercontinental dishes, even we dey hear the rumour say dem wan
introduce Pounded yam, Eba, Akpu, Jollof rice to their food menu.
