How to Plan a Menu for Your Nigerian Wedding in Canada

Balancing Tradition and Modern Tastes

Feeding 200+ guests at a Nigerian wedding is no small feat. You need a menu that satisfies traditional elders and younger guests alike.

1. The Foundation: Party Jollof and Fried Rice are non-negotiable.
2. The Proteins: Offer variety. Grilled chicken, peppered goat meat, and fried fish are standard.
3. The Swallows: For the elders, Pounded Yam or Amala with Egusi or Efo Riro is a sign of respect and proper hosting.
4. The Appetizers: Never underestimate the power of Small Chops to keep guests happy while photos are being taken.
