Our day in New Delhi with a native included seeing India Gate in New Delhi.

How to spend a day in New Delhi with a local: We decided to do some sightseeing during our visit to India as it provided some welcome relief from the hospital appointment filled days. I was definitely not interested in living like a local by taking a bus or one of those death on 3 wheels tuk-tuks to get around (apart form clinic appointment runs). No thank you. Perfectly happy to ride in a very new, air-conditioned SUV driven by a competent driver :-).

We had no idea what we wanted to see or eat.  It just had to be Indian cuisine. We therefore chose to let the driver decided on our New Delhi day itinerary. As we had already visited Humayun’s tomb, that was off the table. Here are the places he chose to show us to on our day in New Delhi.

A Sunday favorite of many Nigerians for breakfast. Boiled yam with fried eggs and stew. We eat everything with stew it seems. Stew and goat meat.

Nigerian cuisine is excellent. Very hearty and full of carbohydrates and meat. We really don’t believe in all the fad diets that seem to be so prevalent in first world countries. In fact, one should realise that for most people, it is a fortunate thing to be able to afford three square meals a day.

A diet is usually accidental because the wages are so low, it becomes impossible to eat well. It’s really a first world problem to have so much waste and choice. There are three major tribes in Nigeria. The Yorubas are in the South. The two other major tribes are Igbo in the East, and Hausa in the North. They have their own different food and ingredients that l am not familiar with, and for the purposes of this post, I will focus on the food of the Yorubas as that is my tribe.
