How many Saturday's in a year do you get food events all happening on the same day in the city of Accra? Ummm...like almost never right? But today is one of those rare glorious weekends where foodies in the city can rejoice 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 as the dawn ushers in three food events.
Two of these events are Jollof-related events and totally unmissable. With #WorldJollofRiceDay just this past Wednesday it's no surprise these two are happening all at the same time and on the same day. So you get to choose either one or be greedy and attend both.
Jollof Market
Where there is Jollof there's peace and joy; there's also Jollof cooking competition, lovesong competition, spoken word, music, the urbanite cool peeps to meet and connect with. The Jollof Market being organised by ThinkMahogany and The Food Events Company is happening today from 11am to 10pm at Serallio in Osu.
