This is probably not one for the girls or vegitarians but this has to rank as one of Singapore's most interestnig eat outs.

CLE African Restaurant is located at at the corner of an eat-out on Sam Leong Rd. It's the regular hang-out for Singapore's African community. Whenever I'm there, I'm always regarded as something of a novelty - I'm the only non African sitting there with the boys from Nigeria, Mali and Cameroon.

Cuisine is surprisingly tasty. Usually stick to Pepper Soup (Drink lots of water), Suji (Broken Millet) which is dipped into Ebusi Soup. Nigerians think of soup as very sticky goo made from a combination of Ocra, beef and chicken. It's really tasty stuff that leads you to waddle out of the place after a few mouthfuls - in short, this is perfect pre booze food.

Quite a bit has been writen about the ambience. The African boys can appear a bit rowdy and as an ex would say - "They're Big and Ugly." Having said that, the sound of African music in the background provides a happy go-lucky atmosphere akin of ones fantasy of Jamaica
