Yoruba in Practice

Best way to learn Yoruba, is to be forced to speak only Yoruba at a Nigerian restaurant. That's what Akin had us do at our first visit to 805 on Old Kent Road, when we went just before Christmas.

We went back there last week but this time we gotta away with English! I obviously let down #TeamAfrica by eating jollof rice when my European and American classmates had pounded yam, but eating with my hand in public is a no-no and eating pounded yam with a spoon is blasphemous.

Anyway, 805 never disappoints. Here's my Yelp review for it after I first went.
