Description
This book explores the relationship between food and identity among Nigerian migrants in Belgium, focusing on how diet influences their self-perception and engagement with others. It highlights the persistence of Nigerian culinary habits in the diaspora, despite the new environment, and the role of food in both affirming cultural identity and facilitating trans-regional conversations.
