Delicious plates from @chishuru 😮‍💨
-
Finally got to eat at Chishuru! It’s the newly awarded, 1-Michelin starred, modern west African restaurant in Fitzrovia. A lovely space set on ground and lower with just a handful of tables, all of which were full. The three-course set menu here is a great option to give you a full taste of Adejoké’s cooking style. Ultra flavoursome plates that were right on the money in terms of flavour. Hearty, warming and packed full of layered spices. The crispy lamb belly bites with hot pepper relish were phenomenal. I had to order another plate after taking just one bite. These things were perfectly cooked - ultra crispy on the outside with a beautifully tender and juicy centre. Super rich, smokey and spicy but very well balanced with the punchy pepper relish on top. So addictive - couldn’t recommend ordering these enough. Firmly added to my list of favourite bites this year. For main, opted for the charcoal-grilled guinea fowl and jollof rice. Like chicken and rice, but elevated in every way possible. The guinea fowl had a lovely char and smokiness to it. A real depth of flavour in the skin through to the meat. The side of jollof was the perfect pairing - each individual grain coated in the slowly simmered sauce and retaining some bite. Solid spot! Elevated African comfort food #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽‍♂️
