Lady Stunned As Date Orders Eba During Their First Romantic Outing

A lady has sparked reactions online after expressing surprise that her date chose to order eba and soup during their first outing together.

According to Bush Radio Academy, the incident was captured in a video circulating on social media, showing the man seated across from the woman at a restaurant while enjoying his meal.

In the footage, the man was seen eating a plate of eba and soup, while the lady appeared to have ordered a well-garnished rice dish.

The man, however, appeared unfazed by his date’s reaction as he calmly continued eating his meal.

Sharing the video online, the lady expressed her surprise at his choice of food, writing, “This boy come date dey swallow eba.”

Her comment quickly attracted attention, with social media users offering different opinions about whether ordering a traditional meal such as eba on a first date was unusual.

While some users found the situation amusing, others defended the man, arguing that people should be free to order whatever meal they prefer when dining out.

Some commenters said the man’s decision to choose eba could even be viewed positively, describing his confidence in ordering what he wanted as a sign that he was comfortable being himself.

Others questioned why eating eba at a restaurant should be considered inappropriate for a first date, noting that traditional Nigerian meals are also commonly served in restaurants.

The incident has continued to generate discussion online, with many users debating whether a person’s choice of food should matter when assessing a potential partner during a first date.
