After trying some alloco on my first day here, this weekend I had quite a full and satisfying experience with more advanced Ivorian cuisine. Here are a few photos of the couple of meals that sent me directly to heaven:

Attieké is a very important staple in Ivorian cuisine, if not the most important one. It's a couscous made of cassava root.

It seems that an Ivorian meal cannot be complete without some fish, and they cook it in all forms. But grilled is of course a favorite, and they really know how to grill it.

This dish is apparently common for breakfast, but I ate for lunch. It's a mix of fish, tomato sauce and eggs.

I think tchep is originally a Senegalese dish, but which is very popular here as well. It's basically fish with a mix of rice, beans, vegetables and sauces.

Snails are apparently very common here and everybody loves them. They are bigger than Spanish or French ones (I heard some of them can weight 400 gr), and they are eaten in skewers or with all sorts of sauces. Apparently they even have their own festival around the 15th of August happening in Ahoué, near Abidjan.
