Jaya’s Cravings: When Your Wallet Says Yes, But Your Taste Buds Are Skeptical

First, the damage:

  • Sandwich combo (classic chicken + chicken bacon): ₦4,550

  • Mini banana loaf: ₦1,650

  • Passionfruit iced tea: ₦3,200

  • Delivery: ₦200

Alright, let's get into it, shall we?

A disclaimer: if you see any strange hands in this video, don't worry. It's not a glitch - I've just borrowed some limbs and taste buds for this video. The things we do for content, right?

Now, onto the food. The classic chicken sandwich? It's not bad, but that slaw is staging a hostile takeover. The chicken bacon sandwich? Well, let's just say the bacon is so rubbery, it could probably bounce if you dropped it.

As for the banana bread, I have a sneaking suspicion that the bananas made a swift exit before baking commenced. It's a bit too dry for me. And that passion fruit iced tea? Not a lot of passion, leaving ice to fend for itself.

But here's the thing - I'm not mad at Jaya's. In this economy that President Tinubu has given us, the prices are actually pretty good. If your bank account is sending you passive-aggressive notifications, this might just be the one for you.

SPOILER ALERT: I'll probably be back. Sometimes, all you need is a simple sandwich that won't send your finances into a tailspin.

And hey, drop a comment telling me about the worst "bacon" you've ever had in Lagos. Who knows? You might just win the coveted "Most Traumatic Bacon Experience" award. Trust me, it's a real thing. I have the trophy to prove it.
