Food Hut Plus — Restaurant in Tokyo

Authentic West African (Nigerian) restaurant near Shin-Nakano station. So glad to have stumbled upon this place while walking around. Most plates are around ¥1,000-¥1,500 each.

The taste seemed adjusted for the Japanese clientele, so maybe ask her to make it spicier if you would like.

Pros: the Nigerian owner/chef is very personable and so, so kind. She has been in Japan since the ‘90s and has traveled around the world large food menu also a large drink menu. Cocktails and sodas are ¥600 each. They offer African beer, but may be out of stock at times they have fried plantains and the classic fufu (pounded yam)!

Cons: stairs are steep and narrow. Just a thought if you have mobility issues or are with a baby/elder person I think it is cash only, but there is a 7-11 near by if you need an ATM.

We’ll always come back when we are...

I know that West African dishes had deep influence to New Orleans foods, and indeed, they do tastes good! A restaurant full of art sence. Factually I think this is factually a bar, but the foods were still tasty! I mean, see, how well the chicken cooked! the meat is crisp and soft, I got mouthful of chicken's fresh fragrance, but chicken's special fishy smell was just diminished by the spice, that made the chicken tastes amazing! The rice was impressive too, in the past I thought Ghana food would tastes sweet and a little sour (because Ethiopian foods tastes like that), but factually the scent of rice was more like herbs....

I went here with my friend and food was amazing, authentic and the owner was really nice. Although we had a nice time, honestly I was so surprised by the price. We were charged higher than showed on the menu and although it says no tax on the store front, we were charged with the taxes. Price here is not so expensive and the food was great, and I'd recommend this place to anyone interested in the Nigerian cousins, but you should definitely ask the owner the true price...
