JF African Market — Local services in Mesquite

I would give this place zero stars if I could. I wanted to try this place out. When trying to park, the lines weren’t visible so it wasn’t easy to tell how to park within the lines. My husband was in the store and I stayed in the car cause I had a meeting on the phone. The owner and her terribly behaved husband began knocking on my window telling me to move. I said I’m on the phone please give me a second but he kept knocking on my window. The owner threatened to call the police and I said CALL them. When my husband came out, she started yelling at him too. All this over a parking spot I was parked in for maybe ten minutes?!?

She was telling me I need to respect her as if she was my auntie lmao. Also was telling my husband to handle me. I usually don’t respond to people like this but today I had TIME.

I live over an hour away but I drive there for my homemade feel kind of food. The moi moi and akara are show stoppers and so is the eko. I also tasted the snail sauce and dodo with stew, last time I was there. I also like their raw headless croaker and I bought raw snail there too, they were real nice crunchy snails when I cooked them.
