Peckham’s Best Restaurants | Where to Eat in Peckham and Peckham Rye - Eater London
"M’Chomo started, as many barbecue joints do, with a particularly skilled uncle wielding the tongs at home and suspecting that his food is better than everybody else’s. The pandemic coaxed many of these uncles into putting their money where their mouth is, which is how this Ugandan takeaway opened right at the apex of Peckham Rye in the autumn of 2020. The menu is short but makes full use of the serious piece of kit in the back, a beautifully embossed custom grill on which chicken, pork, and best of all, goat, is introduced to the coals and become infused with smoke, with a pale-pink mantle that runs round the face of each piece of meat. Make sure to get their mild chilli sauce on the side, either with white slabs of ugali, an East African staple intimately known by many Indian families who came through Kenya or Uganda, or, better still, chapatis to wrap the meat." - Jonathan Nunn
