seen anything that proves or even supports this claim, but my advice would be to try not to piss anyone off. Scoff if you like, but if you go there, annoy someone, and your johnson falls off, don't say I didn't warn you.
The food
There is a huge variety of restaurants in Yamoussoukro, most of them at very affordable prices. If you go to the gare d'Abidjan at night, there is what we fondly referred to as street meat. This is where many of the locals eat out, and basically you go up to something that could be described very loosely as a BBQ, pick your chunk of beef, and they will cook it for you. You can get traditional meat, or if you are feeling more adventurous, you can opt for tongue or heart. This is strictly for people with very strong stomachs.

The CoteD'Azur is the term that refers to the French Riviera and encompasses - among others - the three cities Nice, Cannes, and Monaco. The latter is a "Principality", which is self-governed and sovereign from the rest of France.
The area is served by Nice CoteD'Azur International Airport, which is approximately 2 hours flight from the UK. Although, this is slightly dependent upon the airport you depart from. Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton, and Stansted would all fall into this travel category, where as Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester would all be closer to 2 œ hours travel time.
Due to the close proximity of the three cities mentioned, I have never been to this region of France without visiting all three together!! Although, of the 3, Nice is probably the city I have spent the least amount of time, maybe because it is located in ...
