Nothing serious,

But I'm confident that I will get there,

If you can give me some directions, I'll appreciate it,

I can't enter a restaurant, and be looking for signs of wealth to convince me that I don't deserve to be in there,

I reject it in Jesus' name...

cheesy Did you really ask them if it was for the entire carton.. Lol..
Is good to know anyways to avoid embarrassment..

There was a time I worked at a well known hotel in Lekki where they sell 50cl voltic water for ₦750 (75cl bottled water was still ₦50 then o) and I use to wonder how some people will take more than one and some won't even finish it..

Somebody will even pay ₦20000 for beans and plantain and will not still finish it.. sad

This money must be made sha...

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.

I like your signature, currently going through information overload.

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.

But they both have nice food and great ambience nah. Beside they calm and cosy, not many people go there, so u can enjoy your company nicely

Loool. It's just our poor standard of living in Naija that is causing this. Besides those restaurants on the Island are cleaning out on a regular. The funny thing be say upon the huge amount you go pay, you will see the tiny scoops of rice they will put in your plate. Food wey no go belle full person.

I used to relax at Utopia before but after chef Addi left the place became something else.
Walid made a huge mistake letting one of the best chefs in Lagos go
