Eat-Outs

 

Restaurant Name: Maquis 2000

Type: African

Description:

A large pleasant open air restaurant. A seen and be seen place for locals. One time there, we met Alpha-Di, the local designer made big in Paris, along with several models in town for the annual FIMA fashion show.

Favorite Dish:

Chicken in peanut sauce, prawns and lobster (don't think about how they got here, a 1000km from the sea!), along with side dishes not often seen in Niger, coucous d'igname, plantains, etc. Swamp rat is also on the menu.

Prices: less than US$10
