Suya lovers are always lookin for the best suya spots in Nigeria. This is because when it comes to street food in Nigeria, Suya is one of the most popular and top rated snacks.
It is a spicy meat made with skewered beef, ram or chicken, and also kidney or liver. It is usually served with dried pepper and mixed with spices and onions. Although Nigeria is blessed with other street foods like grilled plantain with ground nuts, fish and so on, none comes close to suya.
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.
It has become a common sight to see customers huddled around their favourite suya spots at night in a haze of smoke as they wait to quench their roasted peppered spicy meat cravings. It is in this light that Propertydome brings you the best suya spots in Lagos according to Lagosians.
