Grammy Award winner Damini Ogulu professionally known as Burnaboy has sent many into fits of laughter after he rejected a foreign delicacy and requested for Nigerian meal, eba and egusi soup.
Burnaboy the “City Boys” hitmaker found himself in the delightful position of selecting his preferred dish from a variety of Nigerian and British culinary offerings during a recent food tasting interview with LADbible.
In the first round of meals presented to Burna Boy, Jollof rice and cauliflower cheese graced the table. A standout moment in the interview occurred when Burna decisively turned down the cauliflower cheese, expressing his disdain for its taste without even giving it a try, emphasizing that it didn’t appeal to his palate.
In the second round of dishes, Pot noodles and eba with egusi soup were presented. The renowned Afrobeat musician sampled the pot noodles and remarked that to complement the Jollof Rice, he would require a special sauce to enhance its flavor.
In the course of the interview, Burna Boy revealed his fondness for jollof as his favorite dish. Instead of simply sampling the egusi soup, Burna Boy unwrapped the Eba, grabbed a spoon, and immersed it into the soup.
He proceeded to enjoy spoonfuls, mentioning that he hadn’t eaten all day and urging not to have the food taken away.
After going through other rounds of meal, Burnaboy before the end of the show requested them to return the Eba and Egusi soup to devour it, obviously showing that Nigerian wins.
