First in command, our head chef is the crucial cog of the management team; leading, developing and inspiring the wider kitchen team, whilst supporting our general manager and owner to ensure a high standard of execution to deliver consistent, beautiful dishes as part of one of London’s best dining experience.
Tucked away in Soho, our venue is home to a Peruvian restaurant and Pisco bar.
Our Peruvian style of cooking is billed as Japanese-Peruvian “fusion.” Nikkei refers to Japanese people living outside of Japan and the cuisine that results when you merge traditional Peruvian ingredients and Japanese cuisine.
Think miso, ginger, soy, wasabi and rice vinegar weaved into Peruvian ingredients such as aji or yellow pepper, Andes potatoes and corn.
