Akara (Borough Market)

RESTAURANTS • FOUND Table

The Backstory: When it opened in late 2023, Akara was billed as West African, with a focus on the eponymous black-eyed bean fritter, a popular street food snack. Three years on, the more casual sibling of tasting menu restaurant Akoko has also embraced Brazil, where the savoury filled snacks are known as acarajé.
