Just Munchies (Alagomeji, Lagos) 375, Borno Way, Alagomeji , Lagos | Phone | Instagram Just Munchies is a small food spot located in Yaba. You can walk in to order and eat or have your order delivered. I stopped by in the afternoon. They had Ofada and Spaghetti, but I thought to try their fried rice, jollof rice, turkey, and small chops because it would be good to get a good feel of what they are. I also wanted to check if the myth of “as long as they make good Jollof, they make good everything” applies. MEAL The Jollof rice […]

Iyan Aladuke (Adekunle, Lagos) 308 Murtala Muhammed Way, Yaba | Phone | Instagram Iyan Aladuke that didn’t have Iyan? Come on. You are probably asking how I got here; I was looking for somewhere affordable and cheerful on the mainland, then a friend suggested Iyan Aladake. I was excited I would get to try something different, but they had no Iyan; that’s really shocking. The space was almost desolate when I visited, but it was quite spacious. MEAL I ended up having rice and ofada sauce with ponmo, beef, and fuku. The food was really tasty, and the sauce was nice, […]

Smalliez Diner (VI, Lagos) 181b Moshood Olugbani St, Victoria Island, Lagos | Phone | Instagram I visited this new cute spot in Victoria Island called Smalliez Diner, which serves an all-day brunch and I was impressed. It is a building with three floors and a light blue-themed space with beautiful inscriptions on the wall. I think it is still in soft launch, but it is worth a visit; the blue theme reminded me of the blue box café in New York City. The space is so beautiful; I know I have said that a bit too much. The space […]

Okada by Bistros and Dives(Oniru, Lagos) Plot 10B, Water Corporation Road, Trinity Ave, Oniru, Lagos | Phone | Instagram Food is life; you know that’s the motto for FoodieinLagos. I recently ate out at Okada Cafe by Bistros and Dives at Sol by Boxmall with some foodies. It was a great experience. The ambience was pretty chilled; you would expect that as a box (container), it would be hot, but it was really cool indoors. They had tiny inscriptions on the wall and little boards that were placed on the tables. MEAL We ordered three types of puff-puff. The […]
