Bib Gourmand: good quality, good value cooking
The team from Akoko are behind this appealing restaurant tucked underneath the arches in Borough Yards. An akara is a black-eyed pea fritter commonly found in West African and Brazilian cuisine, which gives a clue as to the influences found on the concise, well-priced menu. Sharp execution and careful balancing of flavours runs throughout, from the signature akara with a choice of toppings, to tender lamb dibi and a generous bowl of delicious efik rice. Some of the friendliest service around adds to the wonderfully warm experience.
