BEST SUYA SPOTS IN LAGOS
Suya is one of the most popular street foods in Nigeria. This spicy treat is made from beef, ram or chicken, and also kidney or liver and literally rules naija streets at night from its throne of wire mesh and burning coals.
One unique thing about suya is the fact that it is only sold at night. People have argued that it is because the suya man spends the day preparing the meat, from slicing to skewering and seasoning. Some people have even gone on to advice that any suya served before the sun goes down should not be bought as suya tastes best after the day is done and that the best ones are prepared and sold under the cover of night.
