Vusi Ndlovu is the award-winning South-African chef on a mission to unite the cornucopia of flavours that make up the African continent, one dish at a time.

Cooking almost exclusively over coals, Vusi presents a thrilling celebration of Pan-African cooking and heritage, putting under-the-radar, heirloom ingredients front and centre and reimagining what’s possible in the process.

One minute you’re in Nigeria, eating ‘Smoked Suya Spiced Carrot, Iru Yoghurt, Peanut-Chilli XO, Guanciale’, the next you’re in South Africa by way of ‘Goat Chops, Butternut Masala, Watercress’. This is food that connects cultures and regions, in full-throttle technicolour.

As Vusi puts it “We’re not trying to hide ingredients, we want to celebrate them and keep the flavours clean, focused and potent”. Get set for a residency that honours and uplifts the vibrant diversity of the African pantry into something groundbreakingly delicious.
