    For you to experience the best of Naija Jollof rice, you need to attend Nigerian parties. Every Nigerian knows that party Jollof rice is the best, not even a home made one or from fast food vendors.
    This is so because the caterers are very good at it, experienced and they truly know what the standard and people's expectations are.

    Pls don't get your hopes high on chicken republic jollof/foods, they know more about "chicken" than anything else.

    Elomo you are the most Nigerian RUclipsr i have watched recently. I find it hard to believe you are a Cameroonian and not a Nigerian. It's amazing that both Countries are so similar.

    A well prepared homemade jellof rice is better than chicken rep's

    The month of March is the hottest month in Nigeria. And for a country that has serious power issues it's unfortunately the worst time for electricity providers as the transformers get hot very easily. Hence the epileptic supply

    It's not a fast rule that you must wait to collect your food on the counter, on many occasions I have had my food delivered to me, but for that to happen you must make payments for that to be done.

    Lagos is divided into 2. Islands and mainland. Island we have lekki face1 and 2, ikoyi had many high rise buildings, Victoria Island had many high rise and most bank headquarters, eko athletic a city build on reclaimed of athletic oceans, banana island island of the 1 percent home to the richest people in African, Lagos island skyscrapers and concrete village, snake island, etc. island is the real Lagos to say, different lifestyle. Lagos mainland, ikega ojota, merry land, etc just normal cool places.

    Hi Carol,
    Hope you’re coping as well as can be ,with the culture shock that Lagos presents.
    I am most certainly thrilled and mesmerized by not only the very picturesque scenery, but equally by your inexhaustible attention to details, when showcasing that eatery 😢. . The food appeared quite visually appealing, but that portion size kinda left a lot to be desired. I hope it more than made up with its taste, at the very least 😂!
    Please be careful, ladies, and be very vigilant. Also , do not tell everyone that you are foreigners, so that you wouldn’t be taken advantage of.
    The enthusiasm and positivity and that uninhibited curiosity that you exude is simply contagious and catapults me onto a semi-perpetual state of suspense, longing to vicariously drift with you on your next surprise.
    Please continue to create new standards of excellence with your boundless creativity, that never seems to amaze adventure enthusiasts like me 😢.
    May God continue to bless you and keep you away from all harm.
    You’re Awesome , Carol!!!
    Sunday M!!!

    You are funny sha. You went a fast food restaurant expecting to be served? Chicken Republic is considered a fast food restaurant like KFC. Even in America and UK, fast food restaurants do not wait tables or serve customers. Lmao. There's a reason why it's called fast food madam. Fast food means food that you can grab and go. No one is coming to serve you. You order and take the food to go or you order and take the food yourself to sit in. As far as the jollof is concerned, again, you ordered from a fast food restaurant not a gourmet restaurant or a local jollof place. Fast food restaurants often do not have good chefs. If you want to experience true Nigerian jollof, you hae to eat it at a gourmet restaurant or a buka that specializes in local delicacies. Smh.
