Good Luck
Food prices in abuja are high, especially for western food. there are, however, many good restaurants in abuja that are arguably worth the money. of course, whether you live in abuja or are just visiting, there are times when you are willing to pay a little extra for the simple fact that there are few to no alternatives.
