☆.Hanging Out In Lagos – ABOUTLASTNIGHTTT STREET FEAST 2017.☆



So I realised I haven't been updating y'all on my life in Lagos, so I plan to do that much more. Last weekend I attended an event with my girl PEJA and it was quite different, sort of a pop-up restaurant meets hangout. The dishes were Nigerian fusion made by the popular food blogger 'Afrolems' & 'Anu Bello'. It did start a bit on the late side, but kicked off around past 3 (although it was meant to start at 2pm, Naija time) hehe. We both got the 'Bole Canoe w/ Creamy Shrimp Sauce' - It was okay..the plantains were a bit on the unripe side but we managed.
PEJA got the Jack Daniel Turkey Wings - Tasted nice.
  My FAVE FAVE thing had to be the 'Puff Puff Corn Dogs' ooohwee. If I could order these weekly I would cause they were just too yummy!    
Couldn't leave without giving y'all a window selfie now could we...;).
Take care, until next time God bless!

☆.Hanging Out In Lagos - GTBank Food Festival 2017.☆

I was so bummed when I couldn't attend the GTB Food Fest 2016 that I made sure nothing would stop me from attending it this year and I must say it was well worth it!
Yes there was so much traffic and chaos entering the venue and the heat! Let's not talk about that but all in all the event was a huge success, I guess the whole of Lagos turned out for it!

☆.Cook With Flo Recipe - THE YUMMIEST APPLE CRUMBLE.☆

Dessert time! You know them times, random early evening when you're not really hungry but you suddenly have a craving for something sweet...but not too sweet. Yeah this was one of those evenings!

The perfect fix to this was homemade apple crumble where the crumble is slightly savoury but the filling just ties it all together with the sweetness, some may call this 'heaven'. 



Well it was all done under 30 minutes (including baking time) so hey defo a quick recipe! Peep the full details below.

☆.New Video Alert! - Dapo Tuburna - Nothing.☆

If you listen to my morning show on Soundcity 98.5FM you'll know how obsessed I am with this young man Dapo Tuburna, his debut single 'Nothing' is so inspiring cause it literally is just the TRUTH! Since I first heard it i was always banging it so you can imagine my excitement when I found out the video was out.



He is a true testament of 'When it's your time it's your time' cause not too long after the release of his single he got signed to Tinny Entertainment and is now label mates with Ycee, congrats to him!

☆SOTW: Onosz - Last Love .☆

Can someone tell me how you pronounce this guys name! I have literally been listening to this song all week and even when I'm on air (Soundcity 98.5FM) I'm like "I don't even know if I'm saying his name right' there's a 'z' at the end so it just gets me confused.

Anyways to the point! My song of the week is Onosz - Last Love.



I friggin love this song, it has like a Caribbean calypso sorta vibe and I've been jamming it all week! Hope you guys like it.

Listen to it below and thank me later!


☆.My Lagos Finds: Pure Aesthetics Salon & Spa - Salon Review.☆

I call this place a hidden gem in the heart of Lekki, it's located on 'Fola Osibo' road right beside Gravitas Supermarket, if you're familiar with this road it is just where the ATM machine is hehe.

So now to the review, my day starts on a late Sunday afternoon, wasn't feeling too good but realised I really, REALLY needed to get my hair washed, steamed and braided down for my wigs (y'all know about the wig life). Being as it was a Sunday I didn't expect many salons to be open so I was on a search for somewhere to get my hair done at an affordable price.

I took my normal route via Fola Osibo and saw a banner outside some gate, I must admit it did look quite dodgy but hey it claimed to be a salon. So I stumble inside and see a cute little Salon at the back of a furniture store.

I was met by a lovely guy called Godwin who attended to me very well.

Location:
18A Emma Abimbola Street off Fola Osibo, beside Gravista Supermaket Lekki Phase 1

He first of all gave me a wash and then a treatment, I took my own treatment product which was the 'ApHogee Two Step Protein Treatment' so he applied this into my hair.

☆.Recipe: Easy 5 Minute Breadcrumbs!!.☆

My move to Nigeria has forced me to become more innovative and creative - finding solutions to some issues I face trying to create a lot of my own dishes.

Why you may ask? Well not because my country doesn't have these things at hand, it's just either it's soooo hard to find or mad expensive especially now with the rise in the Dollar - That's the excuse for everything nowadays.

Anyways I really needed breadcrumbs for a recipe and it was either the breadcrumbs I found were no less than N2,000 or they just weren't right. So with a bit of research and some tweaking, here is my easy 5 minute breadcrumb recipe, and the best thing about this is all you need is some bread, a toaster and a blender!

☆.IS JOHNNY ROCKETS - LAGOS WORTH THE HYPE? - Restaurant Review .☆



Happy new year beautiful people! My first post of 2017, you know it's about to be a great year when you're first post is about food lol!

Last year I visited Johnny Rockets in Victoria Island which i'd wanted to go to for the longest time but failed to due to cause I refused to pay 5,000 Naira on a burger! Finally me and my girls decided to meet-up there and 'treat' ourselves and I thought why not, let's see if it's worth the hype!
