In her homeland of Nigeria, Adebola Esan was a teacher. But when it came time for big family or community events, people turned to her to prepare the food. She loved cooking and was good at it, so she…
the puff puff was really well fried and worth the money. it tastes amazing. i also liked the suya- portion a bit small, but it tastes good. i like the asun as well.

Never again. I've tried most nigerian restaurants in calgary so as to add more diversity to my review boards and website and this was the worst. The jollof rice was like rice boiled or infused with a million cloves, couldn't taste anything else. The traditional ofa rice was made with peanut oil (even i know that's properly wrong), and worse it tasted like the used kind like used to fry seafood. It was somehow primarily tasteless but with a horrible aftertaste/smell. Gizzards were pretty good. But Asun was also lacking. Had to throw most of it out. My advice, Go to Merilyns or Delish or Ahinke's.

The flavor of the efo riro was amazing, but the portions were very small with very little meat. We found the meat to be dry, but flavorful. The jolof rice and plantains were really good. Overall, it was great for the experience but just way too expensive to justify ordering again.

The stew was so small and made up of oil on top of that basically a tablespoon of stew for that whole portion of undone beans and rice. The beans was hard to. Only thing good about this order was the two drumsticks. Plantain was unripe too, which made it dry and not enjoyable. Overall waste of my money...
