The Corniche Bistro (Lekki Phase 1) 2, Olaitan Sebanjo Street, Lekki | 09034700000 | Instagram What if I told you it’s possible to dine in Lagos with a ₦20,000 budget for two? Yes, you read that right! We decided to prove it by example and visited two restaurants – one on the island and one on the mainland. We visited The Corniche Bistro within The Corniche Hotel at Lekki Phase 1. Google Maps was accurate with the direction, but there’s no sign outside the hotel, so I almost missed it. I had to inquire from the security guard, who then […]

Ours is off to a ‘food’ start at Shores Dining! 😁 We visited Shores Dining Restaurant and Lounge for dinner. Shores Dining is located on Oluniyi Olumide Crescent, Victoria Island.

There are three dining spaces within the restaurant; two dining spaces downstairs; one of which is for general dining, while the other is strictly for private dining. There’s also a smoking […]

Ox Restaurant And Bar (Victoria Island, Lagos) 31 Kofo Abayomi Street | 09044444454 | Instagram Ox is a restaurant and bar located in Victoria Island. The décor is pretty, kind of Nordic. They have both outdoor and indoor spaces which makes sense since it’s a lounge. When you walk, in, there’s a lobby with murals, a hallway that leads to the outdoor space, and the door to the indoor space is on the right. There are beautiful murals on the wall, however, the decor seems mismatched, they couldn’t seem to be able to decide between Nordic or Pan-African. I really liked […]

7th Continent a La Carte by Mega Chicken Lateef Jakande Road | 0906 777 9460 If you were asked to name the top 10 fast-food restaurants in Lagos, Mega Chicken would be on that list. But, does this restaurant only serve the regular “after Sunday service” food or is there more to it? Mega Chicken seems to have more in store for Lagosians than an affordable plate of Jollof rice and an oversized piece of chicken. The restaurant also hosts guests to an affordable tongue soaring trip to China. Say hello to “7th Continent a La Carte”, the Chinese meal […]

Despite the challenges, new restaurants in Lagos opened up. The dining scene in Lagos has been bursting with goodness these past few years and 2020, despite its many setbacks, was not left out. Before the rapid spread of the coronavirus and the subsequent lockdown that affected restaurants and dining spaces, a couple of restaurants like Turaka and Radish Lagos were opened but didn’t really have the chance to spread their wings and take off before the lockdown began in late March. After the lockdown was lifted, new restaurants had the opportunity to re-launch and were open for dine-in at a […]

Japanese Cuisine in Lagos, Japanese Food in Lagos It’s true that there’s rice at home but sometimes you just want to try something new. For us, today, it’s Japanese food. Japanese food mostly consists of rice, seafood and broths, but is anything but mainstream. I mean, this culture gave us Sushi, which is one of the most popular dishes in the world. Thankfully, you don’t have to travel to Japan or Asia to enjoy Japanese cuisine as we have some restaurants right here in Lagos. So if you’re a fan of Sushi or want to try it for the first […]

I have certainly lost count of the number of days we have spent indoors due to the Corona Virus and got tired of ‘normal food’ hence why I tried my hands on some Stir Fry Beef Teriyaki homemade style. This stir fry beef teriyaki was such an easy recipe to follow and to prepare as long as you have all your ingredients on deck. This recipe is a restaurant quality meal in the comfort of your own home so since we are missing ‘outside’ food, let’s make ours! Stir fry is one of the quickest and easiest meal options around. […]

Korean BBQ Lagos at Hua Han Hua Han Garden 45c Sobo Arobiodu Street, Ikeja GRA, Lagos. 0909 867 7777, 0705 100 8888 So we started doing some mini food themed events recently and while venue scouting for one of such events, I and some friends checked HUA Han out. HUA Han is an authentic Korean Restaurant in Lagos and there was no way we were leaving without trying out the Korean BBQ. Korean BBQ is essentially grilling your food yourself using in-built gills in the dining table itself. I am not sure there are any other authentic […]
