If you have an aversion for mama put, perhaps these 5 reasons presented by Jovago.com, Africa’s No 1 hotel booking portal will convince you to visit one of them soon.

Finger licking meals
When you visit a mama put vendor, you will be amazed at the number of people jostling for plate to buy food on a daily basis. This is the level of acceptance of mama put in Lagos which has existed long before the arrival of fast food. Fast food restaurants are an offshoot of mama put. The food is sumptuous.
Affordable
This is arguably the major reason why many Nigerians relish mama put. In terms of prices, small-scale food canteen is quite inexpensive when compared with the fast food restaurants. The food you will buy for N500 can be used to buy twice of the same food at mama put. Note that, do not allow this to scaffold you into patronizing any mama put restaurant.

If you want to eat a proper traditional meal, mama put is your best bet. You will be astonished to hear that friends drive long distances to a particular mama put outlet recommended by a friend or colleague to eat.
