ose.i dey feel you.i wonder why guys find it uncomfortable to take their babes to buka, join que, when it's your turn order for what you want and put your plate through a wooden hole to take your rice or swallow.i guarantee you that you won't spend up to ₦1k


I don't understand why people go to fancy restaurants where the food is barely enough,you cannot take one more plate or order for more,you cannot feel free and relaxed.abegiiii

My breakfast.
5 ounce of caviar+espresso coffee at a proper degree+ mutton+ fresh baked cookies+ dash of veggies.
And Yours
Fried beans cake+1 day old half loaf of bread+ Water.
All that is required is give thanks of gratitude to God for what he provided.

We already had a restaurant charging $1000 per meal, someone has to be careful with how they use their legs waka enter any business these days grin. Thanks for the info, @op

Nigerians want to turn this country into a land for a rich man alone, meanwhile majority of citizens are poor.

Shiro at Land mark.
La Tarvena in V I
Those two have given me bills that shocked me.
Avoid Raddison Blu VI.


These places I mentioned are worth it if you have the money.
The ambience at Shiro is something else.

Lol..
A nairalander took me to one around NNPC, not an expensive place though, ordered for 2 plates of poundo yam, egusi soup and turkey.. I decided to ask how much per plate and the waiter said ₦5,500.. My appetite just run immediately and then I told him to bring just one plate.. I ate little out of that one..
I just pity the guy sha because to me he had already spent enough before he ordered that meal.
most of these fancy restaurant places, their food always taste thrash meanwhile they focus all their attention on the interiors and exteriors of the environment, of which they pay their staff poorly.omo I'll choose a buka anyday to fancy restaurant


Reminds me of a day I was around Eko hotel and suites,I was thirsty and hungry so i walked into the restaurant Side of the hotel.i asked them How much is bottled water, they were hesitant in answering me.they just said I should go and sit down and relax that the waiter will bring the water and food.fortunately for me I told him to bring the water first.he asked can I open it sir? I said hold on,I glanced at the menu.1 bottle of water wey them dey sell for ₦100 inside hold up or in small retail shops,them call am ₦1k! I exclaimed ₦1 thousand ? shocked

I had to ask do you mean the entire carton of water or just this bottled water? He said the bottle water.omo,I told him to excuse me,I talked to my legs immediately.i left the vicinity completely.at that point I wasn't interested in the food any longer shocked
