I recently visited African Food Palace and enjoyed a delightful experience! 🌟 The ambiance is casual, perfect for a quick bite or takeout. I ordered the Jollof Rice and Egusi soup, both of which were flavorful, but I found the Egusi served more like a sauce rather than a traditional soup.

The Beans & Plantains Dinner was another highlight - comfort food at its best! The only downside was that the meat was a bit tough, but overall, the friendly staff and the experience made up for it. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area! 🍽️
