Have you thought of trying the "West African Cuisine?"

For those that have lived in Burkina Faso, this is nothing new; but for anyone that has never traveled to central west Africa, this may be an intriguing sight. This local dish is called to and sauce (pronounced like the English word 'toe' ). The white stuff is made from millet and has a fairly bland flavor. The green sauce on the other hand is made from boiled leaves and often compliments or simply adds to the 'to.'
There is a restaurant in downtown Seattle called the West African Cuisine; and though I have never ventured there myself, I am curious if they serve this particular dish.

Yeah - not entirely. If it was though, that would be THE whitest meat ever!
