The 14 Best Nigerian Restaurants In London - London - The Infatuation
"Nigerian food in the UK mostly represents a small part of the incredibly populous and ethnically diverse country. Alhaji Suya is representative of a different Nigeria, one even foreign to most of the UK’s diaspora, which hails from the south of the West African country. An homage to the shop’s Hausa tribe origins, Alhaji’s mainstay dish, suya, is a portal into the northern reaches of the nation. Fresh yaji spice mixes are imported from Kano state, where the owner is from, and the suya is unrivalled. Lamb, chicken, guinea fowl, or crowd-favourite tozo beef is fused with these spices, grilled to perfection, and neatly wrapped up for takeout. There are locations in Peckham, Greenwich, Brixton, and Walworth. The latter has some seating so the sweltering suya comes straight off the grill to your mouth." - riaz phillips
