In this episode of “Eat Like a Local”, chef Chris Shepherd takes a deep dive into a cuisine he admittedly knows very little about – west African. Chris enlists the help of chef/owner Ope Amosu of ChòpnBlọk to help educate him on this growing culinary movement in Houston. Chef Ope is on a mission to raise awareness in Houston and eventually the nation about his Nigerian heritage and cuisine, but also that of other African countries like Senegal, Ghana and Liberia.
