If you're looking to sample African food, stop by Songhai African Night Club and Restaurant between 6pm and 8pm for a free African buffet. An African dance party is offered Fridays and Saturdays between 9pm and 3am, for those looking to sample the culture. The menu is authentic, with appetizers ranging from goat meat and oxtail soup to cow foot cutlets cooked in house spices with a dash of palm oil. For those of you daring enough, you can order an entree reminiscent of Indiana Jones: Isiewu - cooked goathead cut into chunks with Palm oil, house spices & herbs.
