Agege bread is the soft, dense, slightly sweet white loaf that Lagos runs on. It tears in stretchy strips rather than crumbling, which is exactly what you want when there is sauce involved. Prices are in RWF.
Its most famous partner is ewa agoyin, where the plain sweetness of the bread meets a smoky pepper sauce, but it is just as happy with stew, prawns sauce, a fried egg or nothing more than butter and hot tea in the morning. Buy a loaf for the house or add it to a meal.
Pick it up in Remera, order it online for delivery in Kigali, or grab some with your meal at Jollof Bistro — The Best Nigerian Food in Kigali.
