    SUYA FRIED RICE AT URBAN AIR RESTAURANT

    Urban Air is a restaurant situated in the heart of the bubbly part of Abuja. It gives the illusion of dining on a plane. This spot is a great place for people who love hot and spicy food.  As you step your foot into the restaurant, you are welcomed by the make-believe airplane setting, a beautiful combination of quote frames hanging on the wall, and an immense luxury of modernity even though the interior decor wasn’t a 100, it was picture perfect. Every table gives you the vibe of being on a plane. When looking at the chair to table…

    5 EASY WAYS TO SAY NO WITHOUT EXPLAINING YOURSELF

     “…there are often many things we feel we should do that, in fact, we don’t really have to do.

    PENNE ARABIATTA AND LASAGNA AT ANN’S RESTAURANT ABUJA

     It may look like your average Abuja restaurant (as almost every restaurant in the capital has the same look), but Ann’s Abuja is anything but! I wandered in with my two girls on a Friday afternoon, and was immediately greeted by the friendly staff and incredible aroma of varieties. The restaurant wasn’t filled up so it wasn’t a problem to snag a table. The decision to be made was to dine inside or outside (there’s an outdoor section at Ann’s).  Walking into Ann’s, you’d feel the classy vibes with the minimalist decor and the attention to details. It doesn’t really…

    YOU ARE PERFECTLY IMPERFECT || TIPS FOR OVERCOMING BODY INSECURITIES

      Body insecurity is something even the best of us “suffer” from at different points in our lives. From insecurity over our thighs, arm, face, boobs, ass, tummy, weight, height, etc. it’s a long list to make.  Personally, I’ve also “suffered” from body insecurities even though I know tips for overcoming them I still have days I struggle with it. I’m overly conscious of my arm; there was a time in my life I’d rather wear baggy long sleeve tops than wear a single sleeveless dress. I mastered the art of picture angles that have no way of showing my…

    BRUNCH SPOT|| CRISPY CHICKEN MAYO SANDWICH AT MIMS NOSHERY

      What was meant to be brunch turned into dunch (lunch/dinner) because we were indecisive on where exactly we wanted to go to, by the time we multitasked between doing our make up, picking outfits, deciding on what exactly we wanted to eat and where we wanted to go to, it was already 5pm.  Walking into Mims Noshery you can feel the girly vibes, with the pink decor splashed on every corner of the restaurant. It doesn’t look like your average restaurant as attention was paid to the details. It may look girly, but the play of flavors in their…

Let’s not even talk about my weight, I used to be so fat once upon a time; and…

    BEER REVIEW || MANGO BEER TASTING AT BATURE BREWERY

    Mango beer Ahh, the beer review… I got invited by Bature Brewery to taste their newest beer craft, the mango beer. It was an absolute delight and I hope I did justice to explaining what the mango beer was about.  Appearance The beer is a clear light amber color with a fine, foamy ivory-colored head. Its flavor starts out as mango and ends with a slightly spicy fruit juice kind of flavor.  Smell The mango beer combines fruit aromas. The yeast, malts, fruity hops and other ingredients/spices used contributed to giving it a wonderful aroma.  A little trick to try…
