Welcome to Ghana. Enjoy your stay
Garden eggs are a variety of egg plant or aubagines. If peeled they all are same in taste. The skinny plantain you got with the Yam is called Apem in Twi language in Ghana. The yam goes very well with this garden eggs stew. If you dont like it too spicy always tell them when ordering the food. Because they always assume everyone has same taste like some Ghanaians do. Not everyone eats spicy hot food.
Hi ladies loved watching try the soursop...usually as carribeans we juice the pit of the soursop and add condensed milk to it and drink it that way...yummm there you have a taste of sweet&sour try it next time enjoy😊food for thought
Yes we will do that. Thank you ❤
U guys re awesome 😊

Ghana 🇬🇭 ❤️
Nice video.
Thanks!
Ur welcome to the motherland 😊
Such foods if you don’t eat with your hands, you won’t feel it as how you’re supposed to so next please try and do so yh
Yes. You’re so right ❤ I did even realize this until I was editing too. 🙄
The hospitality you spoke about is 5rue and i agree with you. They try not to be too much approaching to the customers because most of the customers also find it pushy when the waiters/waitress is constantly attending to them and Ghana is very laid back country unlike in mist western countries where you are allocated a certain time or reservation for a period for your dinner and you are out for next customer. Here in Ghana they allow you for your relaxation and privacy and also please not make the looks of some people be a turn off because thats just how they look and you will be surprised to realise how nice they are when you approach them and they really are nice. They try not to be in your face all the time but they do give everyone great attention. Lots of diaspora always complain when they see them serving white people and complain they are giving them more attention than them. But its tgeir job to serve everyone and most at times they see you as one of them and not a guest in some places until you speak out. Most Africans welcome foreigners and any outsider to feel at home and if they don't know you are a diaspora especially being a black person they wouldn't know to give you the more attention any foreigner looks out for because we see you as a family and not just a customer. So you see sometimes the foreigners seem to get a bit more attention ti make them feel more welcome amd comfortable in the society or any place.
I love the fact that maybe I was seen as “not being a foreigner “ because I felt at home. There was something about being in Ghana that just felt right. I think everyone that we encountered was super kind and made us feel welcomed.
@@mpresrn Ghanaians in general are very welcoming as most African countries are also and even when you meet them abroad they are alway very nice people. Its only in Ghana that you sit in the bus or shared taxi and people pick a conversation with you as if they know you from way back. Usually random conversion which could be politics, football (you call it soccer) and any trending stuff. Not because they want to hit on the person or anything but they just chat. Its only in Ghana that this happens and people are always ready to help if its needed. Sometimes you don't even ask and they offer to help. But the other lady you were with really seems to enjoy Ghana. When she wore that wrap cloth in the morning when you were fixing your hair, that was very African. It was very common and still is in some homes to to this in the mornings when the women are at home.
@@mpresrn Caribbeans are a bit westernized but everything about them is exactly same here in Ghana and mostly West African amd this tells this is their home.
Feel like home dont be scare about anything ghana is home feel free
Hey welcome home sisters ❤
Thank you. It felt like home for real. ❤❤
I like ur hairstyle ❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing! What was the name of the place you stayed in when you first arrived in Ghana?
The first place that we stayed at was a friend’s home near Ayi Mensah that she graciously let us use. We were so grateful!
I like Kelewele so much 😊😅😅😅😅😅 I mis it
That's my favourite meal you are having right there. Please ask them to add some avocados next time because it really goes well with it. I meant the eggplant stew and the eggs and tomatoes stew (sometimes with corned beef). There is also spinach or kontomire (tarro or cocoyam leaves) stew also nice with the boiled yam and plantain. The palm wine has 2 types, the fresh non-fermented (usually for the ladies and children because its non alcoholic) and the fermented on (alcoholic but sweet in taste when drinking so must be careful because it can get you drunk completely.
Lol. As you can tell I didn’t love it. 😅
@@mpresrn i noticed you didn't. Because its not something you are used to and also food was too spicy for you. I hope you get to try the spinach palava sauce there in America in a Ghanaian restaurant. But always remember to tell them not too spicy. Palm wine is also something you need to develop yhe taste to like it. Its like Marmite you either like it or dislike it because of the taste. But for a first time trying it best to have the unfermented palm wine.
My sister and I are planning on filming a post trip video. I’m going to mention you and all of your awesome knowledge.
@@mpresrn cheers
Hey sis, I love your video & the information you have put in your video.
Could I please ask, what camera you are using because the quality is amazing.
Thank you, one Sister to another.🙏🏾🇬🇭🙏🏾
Queen! Thanks for the amazing feedback. The camera is my iPhone 14 pro max. I have a cannon but didn’t want to bring a lot of equipment.
@@mpresrn Thank you for that information, I'm in the uk 🇬🇧, & am on the lookout for a good phone to video my travels to Ghana🇬🇭. I'll definitely check this phone out. Thanks again for your reply. I'll be watching more of your videos from now on🙏🏾❤🇯🇲🇬🇧🇬🇭❤🙏🏾
🇹🇹
The place y’all bought the bread from is pronounced man…care…seem 😀( Mankessim)
U looking so beautiful 😊😊
Ah hearing ah Trini 🇹🇹 in d mix 👀
Yes hun. ❤❤❤
About tje Uber and most places reason why they dont take the electronic payment is because the government pass a new tax law called e-levy to get a cut on all electronic payment and transactions. So if you pay the Uber electronically you pay e-levy and he also gets that same e-levy deducted from his end upon cashing out. So both parties lose on it that's why they prefer cash transactions.
I like the way you really enjoyed your trip without any negativity like most African Americans do and you were very honest with everything you said and i agree.
Makola market is bigger and better Madina.
The town you bought the bread is called Mankessim (literally means big town or big country). Its actually a 3 Akan word name Man (town or country pronounced as Maan), Kesse (means big) Mu (means in but the u is never said), hence the name Mankessem/ Mankessim.
Omg. Thank you for this comment!! I really appreciate the knowledge about Mankessim. We loved the bread soooo much.
@@mpresrn its a very old town that connected all the regions hence its importance. The bread is sold along the high way or major roads just as the Fante kenkey (a.k.a Wo enna se okyia wo (your (wo) auntie (enna) sends her (se) greetings (okyia "pronounced as ochia") to you (wo)). Its in the Ghanaian or mostly African culture to take something with you when visiting any one and you must have something on hand to give when you get there. Also its only in Ghana that you can do your shopping in traffic in the cities, don't know if you observed this. That shea butter you bought can also improve your daughters skin condition if she also uses the African made black soap in addition. But the shea can also so the job very well. After she uses her medicated soap to wash she can use the shea butter.
Bro you taught me sth ..never taught of Mankessim that way. Lol..I get it now.
@@kojojampa it's all knowledge sharing bro. Thanks
Out of 60 castles and fort in Africa, Ghana 🇬🇭 has 46 out of the 69😊Sad
Hahaha 😂 is walkings for me ??????😅😅😅
Haha is ur glasses for me ?
so what happened with the food @ JERKSOUL
it is supposed to be a Diaspora favorite 🤩
Well I’ll be honest…. The first time we visited, they didn’t have many of the things that were on the menu. It was disappointing. We gave them a second chance for my birthday dinner and the meal I ordered was inedible. The meat was like rubber. no lie. So I had to ask for something different. I wish I could say I loved it but I tried to make the best of to because I traveled so far and it was my birthday. I was honestly just grateful to be in Africa. ❤
@@mpresrnthanks for your honesty
Please what is the name of the place you stayed and the name of the cafe?.
The name of the cafe is wild wheat cafe. It is in Oyarifa mall. We stayed at a friends home near Ayi Mensah.
Next time go to Makola market 😊
We did but I got the feeling that my camera wasn’t as welcome there.
@@mpresrn they are cool hahaha maybe ur intentions hahahahaa
@@mpresrn😅😅😅 you will be fine

How much did the hair braid cost you?
