Xplode Deli (Lekki) Victoria Crest, Orchid Hotel Road | Phone | Instagram I walked into Xplode Deli for lunch. I’ve been passing this area, but never really noticed this spot until recently. It was such a simple and cozy space. MEAL Their menu was quite affordable. I got Yam and Egg Sauce, and it was just too spicy and the eggs weren’t whisked properly as they didn’t blend with the spices. Some parts were too tasty than others. The yam was well cooked and soft. I believe they could have done better. Who messes up egg sauce? OVERALL EXPERIENCE The […]

Street Food in Lekki – Lowcol Food Truck Admiralty Wy, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos | Phone | Instagram Who else has noticed this Food truck close to Lekki Phase 1 gate? Well, I decided to stop by to see what really goes on in there. It’s small food truck, so if you’re dining in, note that the space can get cramped and hot, and that’s expected because the spot is made out of iron containers. MEAL Let’s get to it. Their menu mainly comprises of Nigerian breakfast options. They also have rice and pasta. I got Akara (6 balls) and […]

Yaqudi’s Restaurant (Ikoyi, Lagos) 5 Mobolaji Johnson Ave, Ikoyi, | Phone | Instagram I spotted this restaurant while driving by and decided to check it out because I figured it might be another cheap and good spot for my Ikoyi people. Their space is quite simple, old and looked deserted. To honest, I didn’t want to judge Yaqudi’s by its cover, but who paints a restaurant like a police station, come on!!!! MEAL Straight to the food, I got Rice and Stew with Fried Plantains, Egg and Assorted Meat. They were generous with the rice I must say, but my […]

Amoke Oge (Ikoyi, Lagos) 95-59 Moshalashi St, Ikoyi| Phone | Instagram If you’ve been following my page, you’ll know I’ve stopped by different Amoke Oge’s branches recently and they’ve left me utterly disappointed. However, some of my followers suggested I try out Amoke Oge’s Ikoyi/Obalende branch. Their wish is my command, so I did. The space is neat and I prefer it to other branches I’ve visited in the past. MEAL The Amala was smooth and well whipped, but the portion was smaller than their other branches I’ve visited. The stew was tasty and delicious. The Ewedu and Gbegiri were […]

Ghana food in Nigeria ?!!! Of course, I had to find this spot. The space is small, neat and very okay for a Buka. MEAL She sells Beans, Rice, Plantains, Waakye, Eggs, Fish, Meat, Spaghetti, and Yam. She also sells fresh juices but didn’t have any the day I visited. I had Waakye, Plantains, Egg, Meat and Ponmo. Everything I had was really tasty. The stew banged and that was […]

Rubels and Angels (Surulere, Lagos) 52 Ogunlana Dr, Surulere| Phone | Instagram I visited Rubels and Angels in Surulere and I think I just discovered one of the most affordable spots in that area. I liked the space, they have lounge specially for people who buy a certain amount of food. The walls are well decorated with inscriptions that are for foodies (lol); the symbols of no bound. MEAL I must say, their ice cream was a hit, and the burger’s size was truly impressive. However, while the bun was fresh and the burger itself was massive and filling, […]

Abula Spots in Lagos I know it is 2024, but I’ve got more Amala spots to try. You guys suggested I stop by this popular Amala spot in Ojota and I did just that. The space was very clean and well maintained and the staff were extremely friendly. The Amala was perfectly whipped, smooth, and soft. The gbegiri, ewedu, and stew complemented each other equally, and the beef was incredibly tender. The Abula was a banga! I loved every bit of it.
