Eating the Globe: Congo

I've eaten South African, North African, West African, and East African food. But not Central African, until today.

When I planned my trip to Utah, I found this Congolese restaurant in Salt Lake City. Totally random, right?

The restaurant was nestled in a weathered strip mall between Korean and Vietnamese businesses. Upon entering, there was a chalkboard with a handful of items listed. I asked for something that is traditional Congolese. The waitress pointed to "Goat Meat".

And this is what I got. The goat was rich in flavor and contained unrecognizable spices. The rice was normal. The vegetable on the left is, I believe, matembele. It's like spinach.
