For better or worse, it makes few concessions to the taste of the Western diner. The <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fufu\">fufu<\/a> comes in the form of a big lump, and is perhaps not as moist and juicy as one might ideally like. The vegetables have real flavor, and the goat is&#8230;bony. I enjoyed this place, taken in as an overall dining experience, but it was not &#8220;the Nigerian place I have been looking for.&#8221; On execution they still need to improve. That said, I wouldn&#8217;t mind going back, if only because there is nowhere else around quite like it.<\/p>\n<h3 class='related_post_title'>Related Posts:<\/h3><ul class='related_post'><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/kith-and-kin\/\" title=\"Kith and Kin\">Kith and Kin<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/port-au-prince\/\" title=\"Port Au Prince\">Port Au Prince<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/where-to-eat-in-lagos-nigeria\/\" title=\"Where to eat in Lagos, Nigeria\">Where to eat in Lagos, Nigeria<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/birrieria-zaragoza\/\" title=\"Birrieria Zaragoza\">Birrieria Zaragoza<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/curry-leaf\/\" title=\"Curry Leaf\">Curry Leaf<\/a><\/li><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kingsway Caf\u00e9 of Laurel, web site, 13919 Baltimore Ave., Laurel, MD, 240-294-4144 (Metro Trip Planner &#8211; opens in new window) [Google | TripAdvisor | Ylp] Full of charm and good humor, this is one of the few Nigerian places around. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/kingsway-cafe-of-laurel\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[81,99,9,83,145],"tags":[1489,424,1487,1486,1324,1488,1490],"class_list":["post-3534","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-african","category-columbialaurel","category-maryland","category-nigerian","category-west-african","tag-fufu","tag-goat","tag-kingsway-cafe","tag-kingsway-cafe-of-laurel","tag-laurel","tag-nigerian","tag-qaerzehjnkm"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3534","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3534"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3534\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3536,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3534\/revisions\/3536"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3534"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3534"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3534"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
