This was Day 1 of my trip to Ghana - searching out amazing Ghanian, West African food!
So I wasn’t totally sure all that I was doing - but this is part of the reason I love traveling and going to places I have never been before - it gives you the chance to learn, and try new things.
Heavy-Do Chop Bar - First restaurant we stopped at in Accra, is Heavy-Do Chop Bar, don’t you love the name? Now a Chop Bar in Ghana is a local style restaurant, oftentimes in a home-like compound or in the backyard. This place is quite well known in Ghana, and they are known for a reason, their food is incredible. I didn’t know it until eating there, but one of their specialties is omo tuo, which are Ghanaian style rice balls, eaten with a variety of different meats and soups. I ordered the rice balls with palm nut soup and red fish. It was insanely delicious!
Lolonyo Tilapia Base (Duncan's Pub) - For dinner on my first day in Accra, Ghana, we headed over to a legendary place to eat grilled tilapia. The actual restaurant is called Lolonyo Tilapia Base, but most people know it as Duncan's Pub, which is right next to the fish spot. In the evening, people come here to eat grilled Ghanaian style tilapia, and it’s excellent. Along with the grilled fish, the part I loved the most was the pepper sauce - a chili mix that was extraordinary.
This was just my first day eating Ghanaian food in Accra, Ghana. I learned a lot, and I have a few more amazing West African food tours of Ghana coming up!

To Ghanese friends, is there a trick to eating with your hands? I feel like I would be dipping my hand into hot soup, grabbing hot fufu and rice balls. Is there a technique or do you just grow accustomed to it?
How many people watching the video think to themselves: please, use the spoon?
I love us frfr and Mark is just a sweetheart.
Eating your hands is good . We clean our hands every time we eat even if you eating your food with spoon or fork .
The love amongst Afrikans is seen during any meal, until a white man picks one to become a leader. But we are extremely united without a white man. Hence we are very welcoming to whites because they just sponsor one to divide the rest in a way he/she appears to unite everyone and fight for all of us. Good examples between 2019 and 2025 is Malawi and Southern Afrikan Presidents.
I can't wait to taste their food 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
I love Ghana food 🍲 ❤
@Markwiens great information. Thanks for showing us your journey. For someone who want to start as a foodie, what should be my first step?
Thanks Mark, for visiting Ghana. It's nice to have you here. And one thing I'll like you do for me is, to inquire of if any particular skill or way to eat the food you'll be given. I believe some foods have special skill of eating it
You are the best u are so humble and u love every culture bro keep up Ghanaians are ready for you next time pls do come back
What that song call, that go:we com long way,….got long way to gooo. Somebody, i serch but Could finde it.
The food is natural. Unlike the food in America that is fill of pesticides. Very disgusting.
