so many views, but can someone please assist

Hi kidrocks,

Welcome to °µÍø½ûÇø!

I invite you to check out other discussions on cost of living in Lagos.

Best of luck,
Christine

Depends between whether you are eating local or continental, which is food from everywhere else but Nigeria.

Thanks Ravent04

Continental it would be. Please enlighten further

Well, it's hard to explain. But on lunch alone/week, I could easily spend $100.00.  I mean you start finding some things that are less expense, but typically nothing is less than $10.00-$20.00 and thats the lower scale of things. I mean as far as Nigerian food, you can do Joloff rice or fish I always find pretty good.  Just keep an open mind...you're in a new place.

Kidrocks,
Depends if u re a heavy eater so to say, and where u go to eat. but its shld be ok.
But a place like step inn with about the best food and pats bar, u shld be ok.

Please, Please it is enough for your daily meals. Unless you want to use 'very exotic restaurant'

Enough for a day.
