anyway, i did visit this place a little while ago (see, its late already) and i really liked their stuff. or did until the medical report indicated i should stay clear os salt and heavily spiced meals.....hmm
its called Calypso...this place i love. restaurant-cum-joint in Wuse2. the catfish slowcooked in in a yam-cubes-and-native-spice porridge is #fingerlickinggood. its a hot and aromatic delight and makes a pleasant change from the regular roast fish and chips.
so how do i rate Calypso? here goes:
- Location: gets a 7/10...i mean its on the road opp AP Plaza in Wuse 2...easy to describe, easier to find
- Ambience: 5/10...and this is only cos it's more of a 'joint' than a cosy hangout so for strictly 'joint' rating, i'd give it a 7
- Service: 6/10....the staff are cordial. not the most professional you'd ever find but clean and helpful
- Food: 8/10....the stuff has me writing this review with a nostalgic smile on my face and mentally drooling...need i say more?
- Price: 8/10...prices start from about N2,500 for a deep bowl which easily satisfied our party of 4. cool, abi?
thats it! i hope someone tries them out based on this. when you do, lemme know what you think.
i'll write a piece on somewhere i visited about a fortnight ago in a day or 2...let's have fun tring out new stuff.
xoxo,

DeleteOn point!!!, let's see more reviews in 2014 (if your busy schedule allows). Happy New year!
ReplyDeleteHiya Spi,
DeleteI'm working on that. Thanks a ton for dropping by. Please share. Let's have some fun eating out and swapping stories.

My 'boyfriend' told me about the place o. Maybe you compensate me with a family trip to the place. Let put the kids someplace and we all have a finger licking time. Sounds like a plan, abi?
DeleteAnd you didn't take me there when I was in Abuja?
ReplyDeleteGreat review. I agree with this. The way this fish in this joint is prepared is completely unique. However, I will recommend going to this joint in a party of equal or more than four persons...
