There’s something unique about Sindaco. I really love your relationship with people. The way you fed that little boy. The way you eat everything with so much passion. No matter how the food looks, you eat it beautifully and I love you for that

[@cookingwithsindaco]

[@davidboamah6679]

Thanks. I was born and grew up in the Great City of Tamale. I'm very happy you are going around the country showcasing all these dishes (and for me, dishes from the north of Ghana). We have good nutritious food, let us try food from other regions. This will help us appreciate each other better. I can't wait to eat wasawasa again!

[@cookingwithsindaco]

Foods from the north are soo delicious 🤤

[@dorcaskaningenbendah3077]

Sindaco aka’em as3m 😁. I remember when my sister was pregnant with her triplets and visited me in Tamale, she sent me out one morning roaming all the wasawasa joints🤦🏽‍♀️ knowing very well this meal was never ready in the mornings 😅. You really enjoyed the north paa, Orekodo ✌🏽

[@andsowhat6862]

Very good presentation as always. Wasawasa is mainly yam contrary to the believe that it's just the peels,but most sellers add alot of the peel side to boost profits.
