Chinese Restaurant



Nigerians are not allowed to enter or order food at a racist Chinese restaurant called Shi Shi in Lagos, an investigation has revealed.

A reporter visited the restaurant to investigate claims made by some Nigerians on social media.

The findings are riveting.

The restaurant is located on 21B, Emina Crescent, Off Toyin Street, Ikeja, Lagos.

Respondents on a social media post about the restaurant say only Chinese are allowed entry, though findings showed that Nigerians and other Blacks are allowed patronage only if they are accompanied by a Chinese.
