Black Truffle & Ricotta Tortellini served with Broth
A re-imagination of food through the lens of the multicultural city of London and more intricately a look at the world of produce and ingredients. With each postcode is access into different cultures. London is a collective effort of people dismantling the notion that difference creates division, what better way to explore this than through food? It’s always interesting how ingredients are offen forgotten when praising cuisines, we talk about the finished product or dish but never really focus on the elements that create that dish. A truffle is one of those ingredients that by nature is obscure, unappealing and humble but once the world paid attention, the ingredient became the star. London and Truffle is a combination of these two ideas that create an interesting outlook on food and the way we experience food.

Our Favourite spots this month —
EC1: Quality Chop House
Butcher, wine shop and an incredible roast on a Sunday, this spot has been around fot over a century (how’s that for expereince in industry). If you’re ever in Farrindgon Quality Chop House is a must visit.
SE1: Legare
I took up residence in this neighbourhood Italian restaurant. The food consistently incredible but the people and the attention to the most basic human need - connection is unique to Legare. There isn’t a restaurant in London like it.
EC1: Tata Eatery
Think your favorite people in a quaint space with increadilble food and passionate chefs. That is Tata Eatery, when they are open it is usually such a treat to go with your close friend and enjoy delicious food.
E8: Casa Fofo
Three words - you have to go (okay, that is four words but ‘to’ doesn’t count). Words are inadequate for this Neo-Peruvian place, simply put DELICIOUS!
E8: Pidgin
In Nigeria, ‘pidgin’ refers to a broken english and honestly that was the initial pull to this restaurant, and like the pidgin english in Nigeria, this (non nigerian) restaurant, served food laced with flavour, character and swagger.
W1T: Akoko
Being West African, it is so important to experience food you grew up with differently. Simple, only nostalgic and absolutely delicious. Akoko is a must visit.
