There is an escalator available at the Adeniran Ogunsanya Shopping mall. You'd see it as you enter from the ground floor of the shopping mall by your right as you walk further. It connects the ground floor to the first floor where you'd be connected to more stores in the mall such as KFC, Food Court, Arcade center and other specialty stores.

The escalator only leads people upwards and not downwards. I noted that a couple of newbies at the AOS were trying to go down the upgoing escalators since they didn't know how to go down. To go down from the First floor, there is a lift and a staircase for that on the other side of the first floor, a bit opposite to where the escalator is located.

As you get taken to the first floor from the escalator, the first outlet you'd see in your front is that of KFC, a chicken restaurant. Then on the right and left, there are a whole lot of stores. The Food court is located at the other side too, close to the Staircase and lift.

KFC

The Kentucky Fried Chicken aka KFC is known all the way back in the USA for it's sweet tasting chicken recipes. It has branches in South Africa and has also reached out to Nigeria. This is the place to go for treats if you love eating chicken meals and they also sell ice ceam. You can get a cone ice cream for N100 and can get a piece of Chicken for around N350 if you buy up to a bucket. KFC chicken tastes really good and there is no other chicken restaurant that does it the way they do it.

The environment is nice and once window showcases the Leisure mall, another mall at Adeniran Ogunsanya. The right side faces the escalator. There are seats and an a/c for comfort. You can choose to eat in or do a take away.
