Rhapsody’s Restaurant Nigeria (The Palms Mall, Oniru) 1 Bisway St, Maroko, Lekki | Phone | Instagram Rhapsody’s Restaurant Nigeria is a contemporary lounge and bar with nightlife energy and fine dining experience. I visited the branch in Palms Mall, Oniru. The space is very beautiful and lively. The purple paint/aesthetics makes the space pop, but the rooftop area isn’t functional yet.

Affordable spots to get proteins in Eleganza, Lekki When we talk about street food in Lagos, majority would assume we speak of “Iya Basira”, or some cool spot by the road where “Ewa Agoyin” is sold. Here, when we talk street food, we talk street food. In that spirit, I took a stroll all-round Eleganza in Lekki, and found some spots where mini proteins are sold. Mini protiens? Well, yes. “Meat that’s meat, but doesn’t measure up to the amount of meat you’d eat on a regular”. It’s not a hot bowl of Nkwobi, or cow legs swimming in soup, […]

The portions of amala here is quite small and the man serving the amala was quite rude, so I was rest assured that I was in the right place. The amala was so so good! it […]

Chow Noodle Bar (Lekki, Lagos) Eterna filling Station, Hon. Yaya Dosunmu Wy, Eti-Osa| Phone | Instagram I decided to have a quick lunch at the Chow Bar Noodle located at the Eterna Filling Station, Jakande after seeing their sponsored ads on Instagram. It is a kiosk located on the left side of the filling station. It has stools in front of the kiosk where customers can sit, and there is a see-through glass so one can see how the meal is being prepared. The kiosk was a bit dirty, I guess this was caused by the exhaust from the filling […]
