For many Nigerians, especially those from the Yoruba tribe, ewedu is a staple that goes hand-in-hand with amala. However, a recent incident has sparked outrage among food lovers in Lagos.
A customer took to social media to express their disappointment after receiving an order of amala without the accompanying ewedu and gbegiri. The customer, who ordered from Amoke Oge’s Surulere branch, was left frustrated and questioned why such a crucial component of the meal was missing.
This incident has resonated with many Nigerians who have shared similar experiences. On social media platforms, people are discussing the importance of ewedu in traditional Yoruba cuisine and how its absence can ruin the entire dining experience.
Ewedu, a leafy green vegetable soup, is often served alongside amala and gbegiri, and its absence is seen as a significant oversight. The reaction highlights the cultural significance of these dishes and the expectations that come with ordering them.
