Atmosphere Rooftop Lekki Atmosphere Rooftop Lekki Lennox Mall Rooftop, Admiralty Way, Lekki 1 0901 270 5495, 0818 713 2621 Atmosphere Rooftop is the latest addition to rooftop spots in Lekki, Lagos. Atmosphere Rooftop is located in Lennox Mall in Lekki Phase 1. I mean the name is so obvious with the inclusion of ‘Rooftop’ perhaps for folks to easily recognise it’s an actual Rooftop. It appears the restaurant scene in Lagos is not here for jokes and triple efforts are being put into aesthetics and all the kind of details that would make it an ‘Instagrammable’ location […]

Restaurant Hopping Lagos This post is long overdue. Us at Foodie in Lagos and Ministry of Enjoyment got together to put together a series of Restaurant Hopping Experiences in the city of Lagos. We kicked this off and visited Lulu Bowls, Las Gidi Restaurant & Marcelino’s Pastry What exactly is a Restaurant Hop? This just means to hop from one Restaurant to another and sharing but ours was also focused on getting to build a community of foodies and enjoying each others company while doing what we do best – Eating. It was an intimate and exciting gathering especially with […]

Wow, so many entries. Thanks for all the wishes – really appreciate them. Was supposed to have announced a batch of winners yesterday and then another today but figured it would be best to announce everything today. Now for the winners.

The rules were simple and to have qualified at all, you must be subscribed to the blog (here) as at cut off time of 11.59 pm yesterday (22nd March) which is when entries closed WOKS AND KOI So funny thing is only one person got it right but […]

Hey! We are six (6) years old today (wow) – Sometimes I am still in awe because I am not sure how we are still here. This year I am trying to be more intentional and vocal and communicate more with my audience as I realise I don’t do this so often (forgive me). At this point, I feel like it is time to open up more and share how Foodie in Lagos got started and pretty much share the journey as concise as possible. I initially was going to vlog about this but I did not prepare well so […]

Kewa’s Kitchen Kewa’s Kitchen Delivery only 0809 802 4889 First Work Lunch feature for the year because I have been trying to save money (lol). Remember that the “Work Lunch” category are mainly meals ordered in to eat at work and are mainly Food vendors who don’t have physical locations to eat-in. A few places have transitioned and grown to have physical locations but the focus in mainly online/delivery only hence Work Lunch Work Lunch feature today is from Kewa’s Kitchen. Found the Kewa’s Kitchen page on Instagram and thought to try them as I’d been following the page […]

Shark House 101, Lekki Aarons Mall, 12 Olubunmi Owa Sreet, Lekki 0809 306 5555 The Shark House 1o1 Lekki Lagos Seafood Shark House 101 Lekki or is it Shark Express as that’s the name on Instagram (as I am not so sure which it is) is a seafood house in Lekki, Lagos and Abuja. Shark House 101 offers fresh and cooked seafood. Shout out to a friend of the blog – Jags for putting us on this. I remember he sent a message saying we have our own version of Red Lobster in Lagos so we checked it out. […]

Warehouse Kitchen Lekki 3 Obafemi Anibaba Street Lekki 0701 196 0772 Warehouse Kitchen Lagos is a new spot that opened up recently in Lekki Phase 1. The address on their Instagram page was quite misleading as it takes you to the back meanwhile Warehouse Kitchen Lagos is actually located on Admiralty way in Lekki – just right beside Fidelity Bank. Was quite excited at the thought of visiting Warehouse Kitchen Lekki but the menu seemed all over the place and it was easy to realize that its really just a regular Bar/hangout spot for the lads and not […]

Valentine’s Day Food 2019 February is here again and we have put together our guide for Valentine’s Day in Lagos with a plus for the Abuja folks as well. What other way to spend the day with your loved ones and friends if it does not involve food 😉 I had started asking on Twitter what plans were for lovers for Valentine’s day in Lagos as anything that does not involve food is just a boring meeting plis. What are your food plans for Valentine’s Day? 🍾 — FoodieinLagos Blog (@Foodieinlagos) February 5, 2019 We can all agree […]

iLÉ EROS 14 Kafayat Abdulrasaq Street, Lekki Phase I, Lagos 0909 646 0675 Ilé Eros is a polished casual dining restaurant which is a blend of fine dining and casual dining. I remember back in the days of the Dodo Special era by Chef Eros at La Saison Café so not surprised he has brought back this aspect of his culinary journey in addition to his cakes – Cookie Jar. Ile simply means home so its House/Home of Eros or perhaps if you like Casa Eros. Ile Eros is located off one of the busy streets in Lekki Phase 1 and that […]

Maison Kayser Lagos 864A Bishop Aboyade Cole, Victoria Island, Lagos 0906 000 7275 Eric Kayser or is it Maison Kayser Lagos we should be calling it now is one of the best bakery/bistro chains with fresh pastries, breads with the right balance for French bistros. Having the Maison Kayser chain in Lagos is a fantastic addition I must say even though it’s a bit modified to have proper food besides the usual bread that other Maison Kayser chains abroad usually have. Maison Kayser opened in Lagos, Nigeria in October 2018 along with quite a few openings for that year. […]

The Metaphor Lagos 78A Younis Bashorun Street, Off Ajose Adeogun, VI Email First post of the year! Happy new year guys and hope the new year is all and more! The Metaphor Lagos is the latest entrant into the dining and social spaces in Lagos. Though still in pre-launch phase, the space has been quite busy lately and has had some themed dining experiences for diners to get used to before a proper launch sometime next month. Located in an old VI House, the 80’s décor and style are maintained. Went for a little tour and I liked how the […]

La Taverna Lagos 48 Balarabe Musa Crescent, Off Samuel Manuwa, Victoria Island, Lagos. 0909 631 2927 La Taverna is one of the restaurants in Lagos that I have gone to over and over again but somehow forget to take pictures or just get lazy and post some pictures on Instagram instead but we tried out the new menu tasting at some point and you can read that here. Since the Visa Restaurant Week 2018 is ongoing, decided to use the opportunity to check out the set lunch menu at La Taverna Restaurant which is in Victoria Island. I […]
