"The debate of which West African country makes the best jollof rice will forever linger, and this Nigerian hotspot may help make up your mind. Browse the menu of rice dishes, soups, swallows, and tender meats, all costing under $20. An herbaceous traditional bowl of okra soup is the perfect place to start before diving into one of its signature plates, like the jollof rice or yam porridge, which are complimented with two pieces of meat or one portion of fish, with the option to add on chicken, oxtails, mackerel, beef, goat, or vegetarian options." - Sean Hekmat, Megha McSwain, Eater Staff
