Most street food is also called finger food or fast food and is usually cheaper than a restaurant meal.
It is often sold from a portable food stand, food cart or food truck and is intended for immediate consumption.
Because street food has to be easy to eat, without plates and cutlery, and also satisfying, it often has a starchy wrapping.
Street food is ready-to-eat food or drink sold by a street vendor or seller on the street or in another public place, such as a market or fair.
The types of street food vary between regions and cultures in different countries around the world.

In the United States – grilled meat, hamburgers, and sometimes even international dishes.
In many European countries, street food refers to food found in markets and food served late at night – pizza and kebabs.
Street food was typically a feature of any urbanized area.
In this example, we can clearly see how the availability of ingredients and the low cost of producing a dish affect street food, and this affects traditions.
Using street food adds elements of authenticity, creativity, and understanding of the traditions of the land and people.
Let’s remember that fine dining also influences street food.
The quality of services provided, the way of serving, attention to detail, precision, and craftsmanship typical of elegant catering establishments can now be experienced not only in awarded restaurants.

Street food joints are not known for their ambiance, so this round goes to the Restaurants.
While there are some very affordable fine-dining places, it is almost impossible to compete with street food prices.
From Amala Shitta to Iya Eba, to Just Amala, to ‘First Bank Amala’ (Defence Car Park Canteen) almost all the best places I have had Amala have been local.
As far as local/ Nigerian food is concerned, I will have to give it to Street Food.
However, if we remove the restrictions, places like Kaza Rice in V.I., Komije Lagos, Sora Restaurant, and Knowhere Restaurant start to shine.

Street food lets you know the culture of a place quickly. Street food doesn’t just entail coming from a street cart or something like that…it can also be a food truck or a small takeaway shop. Restaurants are “same same but different”. Most people don’t associate restaurants with food poisoning, but you don’t know how long the food has been sitting in the back kitchen. Since you don’t usually see how they are preparing your food, you can’t really know vs. seeing your food cooked in front of you in some street stalls.
