The Lagos Street Food Celebration was held at Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos Island, as a great celebration of Nigerian street food culture, organised by 3X4 Gourmet, a well-known brand in authentic African cuisine. The goal of this historic occasion was to elevate Nigerian street cuisine to the top of the nation’s exports of cultural goods. The attendees were treated to a wide variety of delicious street food delicacies that highlighted the depth and diversity of Nigeria’s culinary scene. The menu showed how Nigerian food has evolved and become more international, with items like guinea fowl meatballs and cocktails with Zobo flavourings alongside more contemporary dishes like moi moi and akara.
The founder of 3X4 Gourmet, Banke Makinde, expressed happiness with the event’s success and emphasised the intention to introduce Nigerian street food cuisine to a larger audience. Beyond just delicious food, there was cultural entertainment to enjoy, including traditional dance performances and artwork by talented local artists.

The participatory aspect was enhanced with a multi-sensory art display that showcased “Chop Beta”, an intriguing life-size sculptural installation by Ahmed Abiodun honouring the popular street snack Puff Puff.
The Lagos Street Food Celebration evolved into a celebration of Nigerian culture and heritage in addition to being a gastronomic event. Banke Makinde, who was proud of the achievement, said that Nigerian street food has the potential to be a significant cultural export because it is tasty, varied, and reasonably priced. In keeping with the growing interest in African culture around the world, the event, which was sponsored by important organisations like the Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation, Lagos State Ministry of Tourism, Arts & Culture, Bank of Industry, BUA Foods, and Flour Mills Nigeria, celebrated Nigerian ingenuity and marked the rise of Nigerian street food cuisine. Nigerian street food is praised and elevated thanks to 3X4 Gourmet’s effort, which represents a huge cultural movement.
