"Akoko’s serene central London restaurant provides a multi-sensory experience and fine dining expedition of West Africa in Fitzrovia, via its tasting menus. Each dish, be it an adaptation of a stew, salad, or baked treat comes with a story. The jollof rice, topped with shredded smoked goat and accompanied with sumptuous, soft goat belly, even comes with a physical printed story. The menu changes with the seasons, but you can always expect vivid flavours that wow. Any thoughts that a tasting menu may mean a stuffy experience are immediately put to ease by the relaxed and calming pastel interiors, and charming staff." - riaz phillips
