"So this woman at TUC junction in Kumasi sells ‘bodie ampesie’ for 150gh, and people actually buy it. B)e."

@_lawslaw in an interview with YEN.com.gh commented on the quantity of the food that contribute to the high price;

"To be honest, I've tasted the food myself and it is really delicious. It's quite a lot and the fish is really big but the price does not sit well with me still. She does it per order and I guess she takes her time to prepare it well hence the price."
