Show notes

Inside Chef FT’s Toronto apartment, you’ll find him serving guests fusions like banga risotto with sea snails, and garri tostadas finished with a honey bean puree. What started as a barbecuing gig evolved into Lamuren Inc., his company that curates contemporary Nigerian dining experiences across Toronto, and most recently New York. Ada & Lamisko dig into his life as a product designer by day and chef by night, living and cooking in Canada, and his supper club responsible for putting rectangular akara on all our TikTok feeds.
