Michael Adé Elégbèdé
Ìtàn Test Kitchen
Abóri
Lagos, Nigeria
T.k stands for Test Kitchen. Michael Adé Elégbède's restaurant in Ikoyi, Lagos is clandestine - almost a hidden secret. Elégbède is one of a number of young chefs who are taking the recipes and ingredients of his homeland and integrating them into today's cuisine. His shrimp with banga, a soup made from palm fruits or his Ayamase ragout with goat and rice are free interpretations but still loyal to his grandmother's cooking. Somewhere to try right away.
