Pressing On

It's always fun to celebrate the opening of a new restaurant...and that doesn't always happen in Benin! In the capital city of Cotonou, we were among the first customers enjoying STEERS and DEBONAIRS PIZZA (a joint eatery). They are both big in South Africa I think and Steers is in Ghana too I know (other places too I'm sure). It was a little pricey, but it sure seemed worth it! The "fast" food is not American pace, but still not too bad. It is the only soft-serve ice cream in the country (although being "soft" to begin with may not be a blessing in all this heat and humidity!) We snapped this pic just before Timo's vanilla cone meltdown!
