Rye Restaurant (Victoria Island) Kofo Abayomi Street, Victoria Island |+234014482777| Instagram The Foodie In Lagos team decided to head out for some good food and vibes after a whole year of creating mouthwatering content for you all. We love it though, so no complaints. Rye Restaurant is located on Kofo Abayomi Street in Victoria Island, inside Nordic Hotel Lagos. It’s basically an “if you know, you know” spot. There’s no sign outside the space of the hotel, so it’s easy to miss. K missed it because she wasn’t sure if that was the hotel and had to ask a security […]

HSE Gourmet (Lekki 1, Lagos) 25 Babatope Bejide Cres, Lekki Phase 1 ⎮0810 745 3157 ⎮Instagram HSE Gourmet recently reopened its doors after its renovations and wow, it’s so well done and so beautiful!

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 […]

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.

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. […]

Black Olive Black Olive Lagos 63 Awolowo Road, Ikoyi, Lagos 0818 000 0734 Black Olive opened newly in Ikoyi in December 2018 I think and we went here in January but life happens and this post is rather late. For the sake of full disclosure, things may have changed. Anyways, this is our own review of Black Olive Restaurant. Black Olive occupies a rather obvious space on Awolowo Road Ikoyi so it’s quite a visible structure. There are seating spaces upstairs and downstairs and I went in on a busy weekday afternoon and upstairs was free to grab a […]
