Tom expressed his surprise, stating, “I think that’s pricier than in Miami, Dubai, or LA. This is Lagos, Nigeria, folks.”

Describing the restaurant’s atmosphere, he noted, “It’s a beautiful place with a luxurious, Dubai-like vibe,” but he raised concerns about the unbalanced pricing compared to local wages.

Regarding the acai bowl, he added, “It’s decent but not exceptional. There’s just a small amount of banana, and the granola tastes like something from the supermarket. Honestly, it’s not worth $22.”
