Louisiana Inspired Cuisine with West African Roots. Offering a bold and dining experience in the heart of Shoreditch. All Halal.Start with golden Louisiana chicken strips, or Bayou-style fried shrimp glazed in sweet scotch ginger. The wings? Choose your flavour: Cajun roasted, lemon pepper butter, or that sticky honey buffalo that hits sweet, smoky and spicy all at once.Then we go big.Rich, slow-simmered Seafood Gumbo, deep and soulful.Tender Louisiana slow-cooked beef short rib that falls apart on contact.Creamy, indulgent Mac & Gold that does exactly what the name promises.And yes: we’re switching it up with Gumbo Jollof, because New Orleans and West Africa in one bowl just makes sense.On the side?Honey butter cornbread.Cajun fries.Smoked turkey collard greens that taste like Sunday.Then we finish sweet… candied yams with vanilla whipped cream, or roasted pear cobbler melting into cinnamon ice cream..You’re going to need extra napkins. And maybe a second visit. 🔥
