Ikoyi, London

Very interesting cooking at West Africa flavours inspired Ikoyi in London, a brainchild of Chinese Canadian philosopher turned chef Jeremy Chan. He chose this African region, because it’s still unexplored and there are “countless possibilities of interpretation and creativity”. Before opening Ikoyi 7 weeks ago, he researched for a few years as well as worked at Noma and Hibiscus. One can’t judge a restaurant just after one visit, but so far I would highly recommend it.
