"Nigerian food, even when ordered in a group, is usually a solo, personal affair. One’s favourite stew and swallow is chosen, and each person stays in the confines of their own plates and bowl of warm water to cleanse their hands. But Chuku's fusion of Nigerian cuisine with small plate-style eating is too good to miss. Be it suya-spiced meatballs, ojojo (yam croquettes), or cassava fries. The vegan section is headlined by the tricoloured egusi bowl that deconstructs the classic Nigerian stew into a shareable, sumptuous dish. The Tottenham spot’s big-hearted hospitality and upbeat playlist will make you feel at home whether you’re rocking up for a group brunch or a casual birthday dinner." - riaz phillips
