DRC DINING

One of the staple foods in the DRC is cassava bread, which is either eaten alone or with an accompaniment of vegetables or meat.

Meat is usually beef, pork or goat. Bush meat is also available but for ethical reasons you are advised not to try it.

Restaurants in the DRC range from simple food stalls to the 5-star dining experiences in the best hotels. Familiar fast-food franchises are also around so you can get your fill of burgers and pizzas.
