Holiday memory — Suya that transported me back
I first ate Suya on a trip five years ago and have been searching for a version this good ever since. This restaurant finally delivered the deeply umami from fermented ingredients quality I remembered. uziza leaves was handled correctly — something most restaurants here get slightly wrong.
Nigerian cuisine varies between the Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, and other ethnic culinary traditions. It was the a family gathering memory that I was really chasing and this recreated it. zobo hibiscus drink was offered and brought the whole experience together. Some dishes are attached to a time and place. This one finally restored that attachment.
