Begin your tour with a warm welcome and meet-and-greet hosted by Mr. Efosa. He’ll walk you through a few housekeeping notes, what to expect on the tour, and a quick rundown of the journey ahead. Then it’s time to eat, explore, and enjoy the flavours of Peckham.
Start strong with crispy Akara fritters, made with vegan, black-eyed beans, red onions, and a little Suya. Enjoy a tasting session followed by Chapmans of London cocktail sampling.
Next, head to Jara Bites for a hearty combo you don’t want to miss. Try fish in red stew paired with fluffy Agege bread and perfectly Ewa Riro (Nigerian beans). Feeling brave? Ask for extra pepper sauce for that proper Naija kick.
Make a street food pit stop to try Suya, smoky, spicy, and straight off the grill, prepared to perfection by Chef Kolawole Ajayi. Then, cool down with a fresh cup of sugarcane juice from Pure Cane. It's naturally sweet, refreshing, and packed with energy, a perfect palate cleanser between spicy stops.
Recently named by CNN as the world’s best soup, Banga soup is rich, nourishing, and full of flavour. At Delta Tavern, hear the storey behind this traditional dish and meet the owner who brings a piece of the Niger Delta to Peckham.
Next, try Chin Chin Cheesecake and Banoffee Pie “Chinoffie Pie”, a sweet food ending to an unforgettable food journey. End the tour on a refreshing note at Eko Brewery, one of London’s first Nigerian craft breweries. Unwind with a taste of homegrown beer inspired by West African ingredients and culture.
