🇰🇪 From Kenya to the World
Born and raised in Kenya, Chef Lewis grew up around open-fire cooking — where nyama choma (roasted meat) is a way of life. After training in Nairobi and Europe, he sharpened his craft in Dubai’s high-pressure kitchen scene, commanding premium grill sections at 72H Lab by Ergon and Nola City Walk.

🔥 Why Afro-Asian?
“African heat meets Asian umami. I want Frankfurt to taste something they’ve never had: grilled zebra with tamarind glaze, goat chops with garlic mint and Ugali, whole roasted lamb with West African peanut sauce — all cooked over real fire.”

🇩🇪 Now in Frankfurt
Chef Lewis speaks German and personally works the grill at every pop-up. He believes in live interaction — explaining each cut, each spice, each flame. “I want you to see your food being cooked with fire and passion.”
