"There isn't an official Little Nigeria or Little Lagos in London, but Peckham’s Choumert Road is a contender. Here, Lolak Afrique’s luminous red banner glows like a beacon. Solo diners and families sit with a spread of homely dishes that you would find in a bukka (local Nigerian eatery). Stews are bolstered with offal, and soups come with large fish heads which are wolfed down. Get the abula: a trifecta of soups featuring lightly salted, leafy green ewedu; gbegiri with yellow, subtly sweet blended beans; and a rich tomato stew with a touch of spice." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, daisy meager, riaz phillips
