Food is culture, and in every country of the world, you can get an early-morning idea of who it’s people are by what they eat for breakfast. Brazilians have their coffee, Japanese their miso soup, and Americans their pancakes.
In Ghana, many people get their strength for the day starting off with a healthy serving of Waakye: rice and black-eyed peas infused with sorghum and served with Wele stew (the word waakye is a derivation of the Hausa term for rice and beans).
At the restaurant “Waakye GuyGuy”, this tradition is celebrated in what owner Remy-Tay Christopher describes as Afropop Cuisine.
“Afropop Cuisine is delving deep into the cultural exchanges among Africa and her diaspora. Sometimes we serve Ghanaian style, other times Nigerian style. Food is part exchange, like music and everything else.”
Located in East Legon, not far from the University of Ghana, the restaurant runs a double shift serving breakfast… ahem… waakye… from early morning til late at night, complete with chicken, fish, eggs, salad, and plantain. Clients can win rewards using Premium Cards and are always served a celebration of Ghanaian culture.
Remy-Tay maintains an active presence on social media, making sure everyone knows about his great food. He recently began using Waterfall Routes to help new clients find his restaurant.
“Waterfall has especially helped customers from the University of Ghana, Legon Campus find us.”
