Brunch

I rushed out of home very pissed 'cos I couldn't settle down for my regular. After a very stressful morning, I thought I deserve to spoil myself a little. I spotted this joint, Ebun-Oluwa Restaurant, and decided to stop over. There are countless other names spotting the scene, all trying to get people come in to eat (Irawo Jesu; Adamawa Princess; Udoka; Nwanyi Anambra et al). You could see people of different backgrounds; Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, Mullato, Lebanese and what have you all united with one goal. In this place, you'd better shove your shakara and decorum wherever you are coming from and enjoy your meal. The atmosphere was so friendly. One thing is common, everyone's either has pockets of sweat at the forehead or tip of the nose, collars carelessly loosened, handkerchief on one hand to manage the sweat and perhaps runny nose, the other hand used to molest ogunfe, round-about, kpomo, the works. No holds barred!

I settled down and ordered for amala ati obe efo-riro ati egwusi, kpelu eran ti oto bi eti Abiola. When the amala came, boy, was I impressed! So erotic, so smoof; the blackness was glistening ehn, I didn't know when my lips gave way and released a drip. Happy times!

What's with people fronting when they aren't at home? Just 'cos u cannot shout at your daughter/wife/househelp doesn't mean you have to come out of home to misbehave. Abi as they say, charity begins at home, so he pro'ly treats them that way? Some guy just thought he'd up his ego by barking demands and orders at the waitresses (<<<---- who by the way, could pass for your regular office secretary, if no be say na condition make crayfish bend, ehn, why'd they be keeping such jobs? Fine, fine girls). I almost got verbal with him but I was just too lazied up by my recent bout that I let it pass. You live to fight another day, shey? Maybe he won't be lucky next time and he'd meet his size.

The amount of tokunbo cars on the roads lately is almost unbelievable. Of every 5 cars that'd pass on the street, 2 to 3 will be a Rover 620 Si. Well, I wouldn't mind one for myself but then, Naija people sabi flood the market with all these things sha. Some years back it was the VolksWagen Golf, then came the Nissan Sunny and Toyota Corolla models, and now this. So much for blocking the borders...
