Munch of the Week
Asafo
“If you’re from south London you’ll know about this restaurant as everyone from every background goes there for a cheeky jollof and chicken. I got put onto Asafo by my Nigerian friend which is something in itself. There’s always an atmosphere in there, being in the heart of Brixton, and you’ll never find the place empty. I will always have time for a meal there.” - Br3nya
