Wakye is a very bad food, especialy when eaten with beef, chicken, eggs and/or fish. No wonder this chef sent Queen Elisabeth and the husby to their early grave.

Your name tells it all, in any case whats the big deal if the Queen died. Do you have idea the number of people who were killed on the orders of the queen
If stupidly was a disease it would have sent you into an early grave, you idiot.

Inferiority complex is part of their DNA. What is special about cooking for your slave? This is a badge of disgrace for honourable people. Why can't our people be proud like the Chinese, Vietnamese, Indians, Malaysians, Arabs ...

......slave master...
Why are you speaking and writing slave master's language.
The story here is not about slave master or any inferiority stuff. It's about how a poor and underprivileged young boy rose all the way in life to be who he is today. He was recognised by his good works and awarded by the Que ...

I agree with u my brother. Black Africans are weak mentally.
That exactly was my reaction, Tako!!! What's inspirational about cooking fornyou colonizers and former slame masters. How's that so.e to write home about? My people and their mental shackles!!!
This limping African’s achievement and badge of honor is cooking for this colonialist plunderer and oppressor. I take my hat off for him. KWASIATO. BIBINI ABOA
We need to hear more about inspirational people like this chef.
CHANCES ARE.

Come cook for Otumfour, he will give you gold
Be careful with this travel programme advertising on ghanaweb..many are lazy scammers who want quick and easy money from people...you are warned please be careful
That's GRACE! God has a plan for all of us! As a doctor, he probably would never have never met the queen or got an opportunity to create recipes
What a lovely story! Well done Elijah. the bible tells us our gifts will bring us before Kimgs.May God continue to bless and elevate you.
Every misfortune is a blessing, we say. Good for you, boy.
I've read the comments and realised most have veered off the main issue and rather concentrating on the cooking for the Queen. They are even accusing the guy of being happy for having ever cooked for a slave master. Yes of co ...

Lovely and touching story of my fellow Ghana man. God bless my homeland Ghana. And make us Great again .
Well done Elijah. But you are not the first ghanaian to have cooked for the queen; may be you are the first to have cooked wàakye. Dr Tony Aidoo is the first ghanaian to cook for the queen.
