Chocolate ice cream doughnut[/caption]
When I'm looking for simple treats this doughnut and ice-cream is my go to. A quick and simple treat to keep the kids happy at home. If you don't have homemade ice ream don't sweat it, store bought ice cream works well too.
Best made with fresh donuts and pimped up the way you like with grated dark chocolate cocoa powder or white chocolate.

Brunch the Nigerian way
I love playing around with African food recipes and tweaking dishes to suit our clients at Samantha's.
In creating a Nigerian brunch menu, we get to celebrate our own cuisine but in a modern way infusing flavours of other cultures, ideas from African cuisine but still very much done in the Nigerian way.
