MANILA 101 – AUTHENTIC FILIPINO RESTAURANT IN ABUJA
I got to try authentic Filipino food at Manila 101 restaurant in Abuja. Manila 101 is the only Filipino restaurant in Abuja, and they pride themselves on making authentic Filipino food. The food here is made by the owner who is also the head chef and is Filipino. She learned how to make every Filipino dish from her mom. Every food on the menu at Manila 101 is Filipino, and recently they launched their breakfast/brunch menu and I was invited to try out some things on the menu. If you’ve been reading my blog posts, you’ll know that Manila 101 has been covered so many times, I like to brag…

TAR TAR ABUJA
Tar Tar Abuja is one of the newest restaurants in the capital. With their cocktails as their selling point, they also offer grilled foods and platters. Walking into Tar Tar Abuja, the first thing that caught my attention was their bar. It was simple yet beautiful. Then the next thing that caught my attention was their famous face backdrop -if you’re on Instagram it should have popped on your timeline a few times. Their interior decor isn’t all that, as they paid more attention to the bar and the outdoor sitting area than they did for the inside space. The menu at Tar Tar Abuja had over four slides for…

TODAY’S BUKKA ABUJA
If you’re thinking Nigerian dishes in Abuja then you should be thinking about Today’s Bukka. As I stepped into Today’s Bukka Abuja, I fell in love with the interior decor. The wooden chairs and tables and make-believe trees gave the restaurant a modern-local vibe. The artworks hanging on select areas of the restaurant were all woven and beautiful. Also, each table had different types of games on them – if you grew up in the typical Nigerian home, then some of the games will be familiar to you. They paid attention to the details of their space which blends with the kind of food they make -Nigerian dishes. The menu…

GREEN CHILLI STEAKHOUSE ABUJA
Green Chilli Steakhouse is a new spot in Abuja. It’s what I’ll call a cute beautiful spot. Walking into Green Chilli Steakhouse gives this minimalist vibe. Space is all white with random wall frames hanging on the wall, down to the multi-striped seats properly arranged in booths, to the carriage positioned in the middle of the restaurant filled with random plastic fruits, leaves, and roses. The menu offers a variety of food like steak, grills, pasta, salads, kebabs, fish fingers, tacos, some Nigerian dishes, etc. I and my friend decided to check this spot out and we had the Koffta beef kebab with flatbread, Chicken Alfredo pasta, Grilled tilapia with baked…

April fool’s day! Celebrated on the 1st day of April every year with a tradition of playing hoaxes or practical jokes on others, often yelling “April Fools!” at the end to clue in the subject of the April Fools’ Day prank.

THE PASHA RESTAURANT ABUJA
The Pasha Restaurant is a Lebanese restaurant in Abuja. Walking into The Pasha Restaurant feels like walking into a small village in the Middle East. From the traditional music playing -which you can hear from the gate, calm and not noisy. To the beautiful display of plant pots hanging beautifully on the wall as you walk in, down to the little altar at the right side of the door. I think I loved the touch of the altar, as it gave the restaurant a traditional feel -I’m guessing that was the plan they intended. The menu offers a variety of Lebanese, Mediterranean, and intercontinental. Everything on the menu looked/sounded fun…

SABROSO RESTAURANT – Arabic, South Indian, And Mexican Restaurant
Sabroso restaurant is a mix of Arabic, South Indian, and Mexican. Each culture’s food had unique similarities, making it so easy to merge. I was invited for a complimentary dinner at Sabroso Restaurant and it was quite an eventful evening. From trying out the Taco’s, to the chicken enchiladas, to the quesadilla, down to the shorbat adas, to the basabusa, down to the masala dosa, just to name a few. I had a swell time interacting with the Chefs present and learning about each dish and how they are eaten in their culture.

Brook lounge Abuja is the definition of exquisite and neat. With everywhere splashed with white and amazing lighting, it is not only beautiful but also picture perfect. At Brook lounge, there are two chefs – Chef Josef and Chef Nobble and both chefs have their menus – the options to pick from are enormous. I got invited to the food tasting hosted by Dipo Smart.
