If you haven't had bushmeat here, you're yet to eat good bushmeat in Cross River State!You can dine-in or take-away. There's always the option of boiled plantain to accompany the bushmeat and sauce. For those who like it, palm wine is also always available.All in all, it's an experience always worth it.

I hated bush meats until I ate the one made at Atimbo Bushmeat Joint, plus their palmwine is just something else. Go try it and thank me later.

If you visit Calabar, Nigeria without visiting Atimbo, then you have missed alot. Highly recommend. A local place where you can eat rice and unripe plantain with bush meat while you digest it with palm wine. You can as well dilute the palm wine with Guinness beer depending on your taste of preference.
