Known for its curated menu focused on local delicacies, especially Abula (Amala, Gbegiri, and Ewedu), ÀBÈKÉ positions itself as a culturally rich experience. I visited with my friend Temi to find out if it lives up to the hype—and the price. Ambiance & Vibe At Abeke Lagos ÀBÈKÉ leans into its Yoruba theme beautifully. The space is adorned […]

Amala Tax Office(Surulere, Lagos) 13/15 Olubunmi Alonge St, Ijesha Tedo| Phone | Instagram I took the advice of a couple of you and decided to try the Abula at this spot. If you visit, be prepared for queues – whether it’s for Amala, gbegiri, stew, ewedu, proteins, or even at the payment counter. MEAL The place is quite cramped and hot, so I don’t recommend dining in. Moving on to what I ordered; the Amala was well made with almost no lump in sight. The stew was quite spicy but not flavorful, it tasted like plain pepper. Overall, it was […]
