About this tip
Wara, also called warankasi, is the soft white cow's-milk cheese of Yoruba land, and vendors on the road through Oyo town sell it fried in clear cellophane at roadside stalls, markets and motor parks. Fresh wara is traditionally kept in its whey, while the fried pieces are eaten with pepper sauce or tucked into bread. Choose a vendor with clean, covered stock and ask for it freshly fried. It makes a good snack while you wait for a shared taxi.
