Drawing on West African traditions, it celebrates simple, nourishing ingredients transformed into deeply flavourful dishes. Meals are often shared from a single platter, reflecting the strong sense of community that is at the heart of Gambian culture.ABOUT THE CHEF“My name is Lamin and I proudly come from The Gambia, widely known as the smiling coast of Africa. The Gambia is celebrated for its rich food, culture and warm hospitality. The Gambia has a population of about 2.5 million people; it is the smallest country on Mainland Africa. It is a long, narrow country, surrounded almost completely by Senegal, except for its Atlantic Ocean coastline.I belong to the Mandinke tribe, the largest tribe in The Gambia; even the president of The Gambia comes from my tribe! I started cooking at a young age, taught by my mother at home. That is where my love for food began. I love cooking traditional Gambian and West African dishes and sharing my culture through food. I enjoy cooking, working out, music, learning new foods and cultures and football in my free time.I moved to the UK in 2023 and now live in East London. Since moving here, I have enjoyed meeting new people and sharing African food experiences with the community. My goal is to bring people together through delicious food, culture and good hospitality.” https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/6dbf4380-a6a2-11f1-8990-5d04d231a2dd-rimg-w1184-h740-dcf8e8c8-gmir.jpg ON THE MENU (subject to change):Benachin (Gambian Jollof Rice) | Vegan; Celery, Gluten (Wheat), SoyaChicken Yassa | Meat (Chicken); Celery, Mustard, SoyaDomoda (Aubergine and Sweet Potato Peanut Butter Stew) | Vegan; Celery, Peanuts, SoyaGambian Salad | Vegan; SulphitesPanketti (Gambian Doughnuts with a Hot Chilli Sauce) | Vegetarian; Eggs, Gluten (Wheat)Ngalakh (Baobab and Peanut Butter Dessert) | Vegetarian; Milk, Peanuts, SulphitesWonjo (Gambian Hibiscus Drink) | Vegan; NoneThis menu contains meat (chicken) but is vegetarian-friendly (6/7 dishes are meat-free).
