African Food

This time I am not going to talk about the Canadian culture but about the African! This is because of my experience today with African dishes. I live on the campus in Residence where are no possibilities too cook for myself. Therefore all the students go to the Dining Centre to eat there. If the Dining Centre would give us the same meals every day, we would get crazy. That is way the Dining Centre came up with a very good idea; special dishes from different cultures. This day was ‘African day’. I was thinking what kind of food they eat in Africa, what special African food would be like. I thought I knew a lot of international dishes but the most comes from Europe or North America. So when I was ready to get my dinner, there were a few things I could choose of. My instinct told me what to get; couscous with meat. It looked really good and I was wondering how it would taste. When I sat down at a table, the meal already smelt a little bit weird; like monkeys at a zoo. Nevertheless, I ate everything. But after a few seconds I thought if it smells like monkeys, maybe it is meat from a monkey! That thought didn’t made me very happy so I kept on eating as quick as possible and I also don’t want to know the answer of my thought!
