Tucked away in Victoria Island lies Lydia’s Place. It’s a nice and well thought out space. Downstairs it looks like a traditional restaurant while upstairs are the lounges including private rooms. The menu is typically Nigerian – a wide range of ‘soups’ including Egusi, Okro, Banga and Oha to name but a few along with rice dishes and the predictable range of additions such as beef, chicken, goat meat, snail, seafood and fish. In passing, in a country which typically overlooks beef to ridiculous extremes, it is a plus that they produce beef far more palatable to a European palate.
The food is cooked fresh and there are many positives attached to this including the diner being able to regulate the heat of the spices – few like “mild” while few prefer “hot hot”! It also ensures a good quality to the final product. A trial will definitely convince you!
