ADVENTURES OF A FOODIE RESIDING IN LAGOS
February 11, 2016
Valentine’s day is here again and Love is in the air and the question on most minds in Lagos is “Where do I actually go?” We have been sharing Valentine’s Day Guides especially for where to eat in Lagos and other specials since 2014 especially to subscribers of the blog who get them as Emails/Newsletters but this year we are opening it up as we see that alot of places now share and I guess its easier to just read a collated report 🙂 Well we have put together a list of places we think you should go strictly […]

Shrove Tuesday is usually the day before Ash Wednesday which is the beginning of Lent and somehow somehow got tagged as Pancake Day. I always wondered why this was called so until I read that the English tradition of eating pancakes on Shrove Tuesday came about as a way to use as much milk, fats, and eggs as possible before Ash Wednesday…. Unluckily for me, I was unable to have any pancakes but I drooled over quite a number on Instagram and shared on Twitter and Facebook the IG posts that I absolutely loved on Instagram. Someone threatened to […]

Happy new month guys (Lol I knowwwwww…) But this is my best month because its my birth month whoop whoop!

Mansilla Restaurant Restaurant Victoria Island Mansilla Restaurant, Victoria Island (Closed Down) 6, Musa Yar’Adua Street, off Kofo Abayomi Street, Victoria Island, Lagos +234 802 458 1351, +234 809 237 4112 So one Sunday, I went to Mansilla Restaurant with my friend – Y to try it out as I never made it here when it was still called “Wott to Eat”. Glanced through the menu which is not so extensive by the way and the proper thing to have was ‘Brunch’. Everyone loves a good brunch and it seems like the perfect Sunday ritual. It had this huge space outside and a nice […]

Hey Guys!!! Meet Kehinde of Bonita Valli as she gives us her quick review of Casa D’Lydia ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Last Saturday, I was meeting the BF’s sister for lunch. She’s lived out of Nigeria for a while and we’d only just really met, so I decided I’d take her somewhere I felt comfortable, but also somewhere she’d feel at home and welcome. The Casa D’Lydia Bistro was the obvious choice. Keep reading and I’ll tell you why…

So I decided to try something new and this time, my work lunch was from Diet Munchers (“DM”). They had been popping up on my Instagram and some Snap Chat users had put up pictures of their food from DM. So I tried it out especially as pictures on their website and instagram looked really good and more like home-cooked meals.

One of my followers on Instagram and another on Twitter had suggested I visited Smokey Bones (“SB”). SB has been around since last year but had a proper launch in April 2015 according to one of their staff but I only just knew about it few months ago thanks to followers of the blog – Shoutout to our lovely readers! I had seen some web flyers and stumbled on their website. The pictures looked mouth – watering and food looked very sticky just how I like it sometimes. Lol. Went to SB on a Friday evening after work hoping to […]

Hey guys, Apologies for being away.. been having more fun on Instagram and Facebook instead x_x. If you aren’t following FIL on those platforms, you should as something is coming soon and you wouldn’t want to miss it. 🙂 Now on to the #FoodieSnap of the day – Roadster Burger N Grills (“RBG”). Found out about this spot through Living in Lekki’s Instagram post and coincidentally I was starving that night and craving some ribs. Her post was too tempting to ignore and I raced down there to see if it was worth it based on the recommendation about checking […]
