\n[1] Suya is a popular street food in Nigeria (and elsewhere in West Africa) and there\u2019s little doubt as to why. Sliced beef and other meats are marinated, skewered, grilled, liberally peppered with a spicy, peanutty, powdery seasoning blend and generally accompanied by slices of raw onion. Brooklyn Suya maintains the tradition at 717 Franklin Ave in Crown Heights with its Suya Bowls: choose steak, chicken, or shrimp and two of kale, plantain, egg, or avocado, all over rice. Or, you can order suya solo, sans all those healthy accoutrements; that\u2019s what you see here.<\/p>\n

[2] Extreme close-up of chicken, steak, and shrimp \u2013 just to get the juices flowing. It\u2019s a tiny space, with a few window perches and a counter, so you might consider take-out, but that didn\u2019t deter us. Incidentally, they sell their custom blends of seasoning\/marinade if you want to try your hand at making suya \u2013 but if you enjoy cooking, I suspect you\u2019ll find dozens of other uses in the kitchen for their piquant spice blends.
