Taste of Lopinot

The Taste of Lopinot
The Taste of Lopinot was a fascinating affair that highlighted aspects of Lopinot culture through its food. This event which took place on Saturday 30th July, 2006, invited visitors to observe the processes of traditional food making in that part of the country. Foods such as 'tom-tom' (pounded yellow yam), coffee, which included the drying, roasting and grinding of the beans, chocolate, tamarind balls and cassava bread were all on display. Also, people were able to observe the tools used for picking cocoa pods such as the 'picadol' knife, the broom made out of 'black sage' leaves and the spices used to flavour the foods.
