How To Use The Heyfood App

One can describe the food scene in Ibadan as evolving. From being stereotyped as the primary city to offer Amala that leaves you wanting for weeks (which is not a lie). Ibadan is gradually becoming a budding space for various African cuisines. One can say, the food scene in Ibadan is exciting to watch.

As more people migrate from other states in the nation, the need for Ibadan to catch up with the food demand of the influx of people birthed Heyfood.

Heyfood can be described as a virtual window of the food scene here in Ibadan. From local favourites to fine dining experiences, there is something for every budget and every craving.
