"mo dé ni Lagos"

I have arrived in Lagos (via Birmingham)

At Modé Lagos, we’re passionate about bringing the bold, vibrant flavors of Nigeria to the world. Our name, Modé Lagos, is derived from the Yoruba phrase “mo dé ni Lagos,” which means “I have arrived in Lagos.” We chose this name as a tribute to the bustling energy and cultural richness of Lagos, one of Nigeria’s most dynamic cities.
 
Our menu features a range of classic Nigerian dishes, including jollof rice, egusi soup, suya, and plantain. We use only the freshest ingredients and traditional cooking techniques to ensure that every dish is bursting with flavour. Whether you’re a longtime Nigerian food fan or a curious newcomer, we’re dedicated to providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere for all of our customers.
