Soul Food in Lagos | Cafeteria Review | I’m Exactly Where I Need To Be

[@julietambali]

Sisi Yemmie, I tried your big outdoor pot fried rice recipe. That recipe is the truth! Thanks to amazing cooks like you that make food and eating worth it for us all. That green pepper and spring onions blend you added is such an amazing twist. I love it. Keep giving us the best. Praying God blesses you and all that concerns you continually.🥰♥️

[@tabbijoy6448]

Love your scripture reference by the way. The first time I noticed it was when I needed it the most. I was feeling so much anxiety because of a lot of major events going on in my life and I came to your page to get some recipe ideas because although I’m American, my husband is Nigerian so I’ve been learning as much as I can about the different foods he’s used to eating. In any case, I did not expect to see that scripture in your description box but I needed to see it and it helped me immensely! So thanks for letting God use you! Blessings sister .🙏🏽

[@terriarheghan3676]

Yes, they need to invest in plates that are chip free. That’s a no no!

[@rakgadim.mohlala1324]

I think it gives the place character

[@lillycee5054]

I agree chipped plates are a no no. It diminishes the aesthetic plus not sure about hygiene. Food looked very yummy 😋

[@ngozidibia7278]

I agree with you. Chipped plates are not acceptable. As a restaurant, the management should know this.

[@simisolamaiyegun9607]

The fact that they charge so much for food served in chipped plates is off putting abeg.

[@tabbijoy6448]

Hi! all the food looked really good! And that drink definitely looks like a caramel Frappuccino. The food, however, they may have mislabeled. While it is American style cuisine, it is definitely not soul food. I think I saw baked Mac n cheese on the menu. This is the only item (that I noticed) that could potentially fall into the soul food category).

[@Zellyszone]

You do have eyes for good things. So many yummylicious to choose from. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@DeeUbani]

Chipped plates always puts SisiYemmie off😀 I remember you have mentioned it about another restaurant in the past... The food looks so delish,especially the pancakes!

[@chachashotfriedchicken1560]

I love this! Thank you for sharing your menu. Sadly, I will never make it too Lagos but you have blessed me with an idea of what's its like to dine in your beautiful city in your country. Be blessed!

[@beautyadaugo3177]

Absolutely love the Noah’s garden omelette at cafeteria! It’s so yummy!!

[@maximillianairborne3797]

Love the music 🎶 playing in the background.

[@tosanogis4166]

For a restaurant, I don’t think it’s appropriate to serve a customer with a chipped plate 🙅🏽‍♀️

[@FunmiLiving]

Yum yum time so I am joining. 😛😛😛. My own plate that I like using, if chipped, I will continue depending on where it chipped. Restaurant? Heck no, and the replacement too? I noticed I wondered if it was the design. The owner needs to leave Instagram and pay attention to business for a minute. Bugs can live in cracks so I beg, no give people belle ache for us now. If the chip scratch your finger nko or other peoples?

[@susanh881]

Everything looks so good and I haven’t eaten breakfast yet except for a cup of black coffee and yogurt with some fruit. Pancakes are everything! 🤤 Yummy!

[@abiolasavage2519]

Inspirations everyday🥰🥰🥰🥰 Food looks yummy

[@Chizzy_graphix]

[@jewel3567]

Yummy 😋 All of they food looks good. You are truly a Chef who loves good food. 🥞🧅🧄🥓🍔🍟🧋🍽☕️

[@natalie-m1z]

The chipped plate is the least of my concern. At least its not broken. Thank god for the food

[@FOLATOPCONCEPTZ2021]

This place is classic thou very beautiful place to visit

[@misstee7955]

Chipped plates in a restaurant is a NO NO! That’s not acceptable. But the food looks lovely

[@ogechiezeibe2613]

This thumbnail is fire❤❤😘😘😍

[@asikanonyalim1185]

I’m definitely going to visit there. Hello sisiyemmie 💞💞

[@dacostafeyisayo4747]

Sisi Yemmie, happy Sunday, you are making salivate here. Have a lovely week.

[@oluwadaredeborah526]

Happy Sunday sisi..

[@Elandaskitchen442]

Sisi yemmie this is not fair, nah now wey person no get cash at hand. You've posted this amazing looking meal. Longer throat me ohhhhhh.

[@agbajemary5448]

Will check it out next week 🙂

[@xoxokaebeauty]

At this point you look like Fummee here! I agree about chipped plates it immediately puts me off. I have never been to any restaurants here and received chipped plates but this is “the abroad”. The food looked tasty though and the attendants seem very responsive like they didn’t leave you to wonder where they are. That was my problem when I visited Lagos and went to Cubanos smhh

[@LizzyTv]

Their food looks delicious, they served with chipped plate think that the customer won't notice 😀 anyways I think it's because you were curious, many would think its actually a design, so since it's not design they should consider investing in plates na,

[@rebekahkingbello9560]

Looks yummy! And I agree - no to chip plates. That takes away from the experience and aesthetic. Not to mention that you could get cut. Also toast with breakfast is a common in the US.

[@evemason3456]

Lovely food but chipped plates are a no-no! Plates have a glossy surface which is a glaze that covers and seals the material that the plate is made from. It keeps the bacteria out. When a plate or a cup is chipped and the outer seal (the surface) is broken, bacteria can get into the plate. If anyone eats from that plate..... The same with cups. Apparently.

[@anesit]

Wow wow wow.. deliciously made😘

[@adannaskitchen]

Wow... this is so beautiful 😍

[@cookingwithncp4901]

Love Your Cooking

[@chikaokereke]

they need to get new plates haba...but food looks good.

[@Mueledzi_Felicity]

It looks amazing, but I was shocked to see that they charge for the takeaway packs.

[@jacklyneverage3881]

Hey there. Black American here. First, let me start by saying that the food looks absolutely delicious! It looks really good. However, it isn't soul food. This kind of food you are eating is what you would find in an American diner in the US including a breakfast diner. So, it is American themed or styled food, but it is more mainstream America. Soul food is a Black American origin cuisine within the US and the style of cooking is different. What would come close to our food style would be a "southern style" breakfast that would be American style biscuits, sausage, gravy, grits, fried salmon patties, sometimes plain cooked rice, fat back, bacon, scrambled eggs, etc...We would have some things on that Americans menu like pancakes, but we would do cornbread cakes, a steak and eggs, chicken fried steak with gravy, fried potatoes, shrimp and grits, and some of us will fry fish and serve it with our rice or grits and eggs....So, some minor changes.

[@ejirostella]

Looks yum

[@ejirostella]

Why are the messages disappearing 😕 Looks really yummy

[@FOLATOPCONCEPTZ2021]

The burger is big o how will you put in your mouth sis. Once a plate is chipped it has finish work be that one can get injured o

[@UK-sm4co]

I detest eating with chipped Plate too. Food looked good 👍 22k tho... hmmm. Oh well... Lagos is expensive anyway especially on the Island

[@datnaijagirl]

yummy 😋

[@NjokuMaryann]

Whenever I'm in lagos and I'm looking for a cute place to eat I will just come yemi's channel and make my choice. Love you Ma❤

[@nicolet3901]

the prices are a bit high for the food they are serving especially for them to put your food on chipped plates. Also i saw fans and not an AC unit outside.if they fix all the above and charge 15 dollars for food (6500 naira) then it would be worth it as long as the food is good. but i wouldnt go to that place for those prices for a chicken sandwich or pancakes.

[@izzkaii]

looks yummy😋

[@Blecyn]

First today hahahaha/ first look is very enticing

[@godismyhelp6359]

So how do you eat all this at a sitting

[@TheJazzyfame]

Chipped plates 🍽 such a turn off. I would not be eating the food. Out the door I go.

[@lanitabennett5375]

Yum!

[@rasheedayakubu6381]

The chipped plates were so wrong 💀🥴

[@PatriciaAbijah]

Great place

[@adisaakomolede3039]

That crepes looked so fluffy and delicious, y'all need to visit Cafeteria, you will not regret going there, their food matches their aesthetic. Also, I love a biodegradable paper bag, extra thumbs up to them 👏🏾 . #adisawashere

[@Angeline453]

To pay 6,5k for a burger and get a chipped plate is a no no

[@user-ss8ti9ts1t]

All I can say is Delicacies🍱

[@funkie0490]

O wrong naaaa. Why would they serve with chipped plates 😲

[@TheWorldofSam]

How much are they selling plates that they're serving in chipped plates? That's just so tacky!

[@deezame]

The food looks good but yes the chipped plates are a no no

[@NazorEzeh]

They should change their plates oo!😫

[@deeron1554]

No to chipped plate. Gosh that's a lot of food, I would have been full with the pancakes and drink.

[@ruchie3461]

Wow chipped plates. I have never seen anything like this before

[@abiodunbabata8463]

Chipped plates in a restaurant never ha..ha a.

[@teenuharde5440]

5500 for pancakes!!! Issokay

[@Wakagirl]

Food looks good. Very terrible with the chipped plate. They need to do better kai

[@ewatofunmi]

😘😘

[@DrJiles-gm8ks]

The food looked delicious, but to answer your question: No, to chipped plates and no to a knife inserted in the food. A toothpick (or two) should have been inserted in the sandwich to keep the chicken from separating from the bun. Ai yi.....

[@folasadeoniyitan5399]

A knife was inserted because the burger was so big, your meant to cut it in half with the knife but a lot of people dont know that

[@luciaanulika5256]

Lol, what kind of toothpick will they insert in that massive burger? Also you can't even have a bite of the burger without cutting it with the knife they inserted.

[@dorisentertains9919]

@@luciaanulika5256 a skewer is widely used to hold the chicken or anything in the bun. And why do I even need to divide the bun when I'm supposed to use my hands to hold the burger and take a very nice bite 😌

[@luciaanulika5256]

@@dorisentertains9919 Did you see how high that burger is? The burger came with a fried chicken not a flat minced beef, if you press it down too hard, it will make a mess and if you are not careful, you will stain yourself IF any veggies drop or any drip. You can cut the burger IF you want to that's the restaurant giving you an option, they can use skewers and also provide knife.

[@mojisolaodusanwo2674]

As good as their food presentation looks , the chip plates lowers their rate. Its absolutely wrong to serve customers with unrepresentative plates.

[@faithmhasvi]

Everytime i watch your videos i want to move to your country, you should do tourism clips more... and no the chipped plates are not acceptable at all.

[@catherineharding7440]

Chips plates are a no go in a resturrant.Please tell them improve on their presentation with their plates.

[@adedamola8761]

"Cafeteria" is top on my list of restaurants to visit. I look forward to having meals there with their "Bubble Tea & Boba Balls"..... Pls review "BBQ & Cravings". PS: I visited "Toasties" and had their RAm sandwich and it was heavenly....🤤🤤🤤

[@millzn5080]

Those chipped plates are a complete turn off!No,No,No.
