Description
The idealisation of the Barcelos Restaurant, Accra Mall derived from a legend concerning a galego who was sentenced to hang despite his protest of innocence. In a last minute appeal to the judge, who was having dinner at the time, the condemned man made a bold statement: If his claim of innocence was true, the roasted rooster, resting on the judges plate would get up and crow. Suddenly, a glorious scarlet plumed cockerel rose from the plate, crowing loud and long. The man was acquitted, of course!
