The story
In the heart of Abuja, Ibu Kitchen offers a taste of Taiwan that has earned it a Michelin Bib Gourmand award—a mark of good quality, good value cooking. The restaurant describes itself as "An Oasis of Pleasure," a fitting phrase for a place where Taiwanese cuisine is served with warmth and simplicity.
The menu is a curated selection of dishes and drinks, with prices listed in Nigerian Naira. Among the offerings are Kunu Geda (₦2,500), Orange Juice (₦5,000), and White Soup (₦7,000). For those seeking a lighter bite, there is a Fruit Cup Salad (₦2,000) and a Green Salad (₦6,000). The drink list includes Chapman (₦4,000), Lemonade (₦3,000), and Virgin Mojito (₦2,500). A standout is the Fura da Nono (₦3,000), a traditional northern Nigerian yogurt and millet drink that reflects the restaurant's local roots.
Ibu Kitchen also offers special packages, such as an Abuja Iftar (adults ₦10,000, kids ₦6,000) and a Kano Iftar (same pricing), catering to communal dining during Ramadan. The restaurant's atmosphere is enhanced by air conditioning, outdoor seating, and parking, making it a comfortable spot for both lunch and dinner.
With outlets in Wuse II (49b Kumasi Crescent, behind Dominos Pizza) and Kano (Plot 55 Audu Bako Way), Ibu Kitchen brings a Taiwanese touch to Nigeria, backed by the credibility of a Bib Gourmand recognition. The team behind it, as noted on their website, is dedicated to an "Oasis of Pleasure" experience—no frills, just good food and drink.
