A timeless British-Indian breakfast staple, our Kedgeree is a stunning bowl of golden, saffron-infused rice studded with flakes of perfectly poached smoked basa (or Haddock).

Experience the electrifying clash of flavour with our Cajun-Kissed Salmon. Each fillet is masterfully seared, delivering a perfect contrast of a crispy, mahogany crust and a tender, buttery-soft interior. The heat is a smoky, full-bodied swagger from authentic Cajun seasoning, which then surrenders to the tangy, sweet thunder of our signature Bang Bang sauce.
Experience the pure reward of patience with our Fragrant Fish Biryani. This is a symphony of scent built on perfectly steamed basmati. The profile is anchored by the heady, intoxicating bloom of cardamom, delivering a sweet, nutty warmth layered with bright whispers of fresh lemon. A fantastic, savoury incense lifts from the bay leaf, enveloping tender, fluffy nuggets of basa fish that remain impossibly soft and light, melting seamlessly into the spiced rice. This is the aromatic gold standard of comfort food.
"Experience our Tilapia and Sticky Rice Duet—a study in complementary textures. We present delicately baked tilapia, known for its light, buttery flakiness, paired with a mound of sweetly yielding, pearlescent sticky rice. This comforting core is beautifully augmented by the addition of bright, heirloom carrots, which introduce a flash of colour and a subtle, natural sweetness and snap. The entire composition is finished with a brilliant drizzle of citrus-infused glaze.
Savour the flaky, pearlescent sea bass, its surface kissed with a golden, delicate sear. Nestled beneath, a luxurious, velvet-smooth coconut-spinach emulsion—its subtle sweetness and creamy body a perfect counterpoint to the rich fish. This vibrant pairing rests upon a bed of incredibly nutty, resilient forbidden black rice, its striking, deep-violet hue providing an earthy, antique depth to the plate.
Experience the soulful heart of Louisiana cooking with our authentic Jambalaya. It begins with the classic, slow-rendered "holy trinity"—finely diced Spanish onions, crisp celery, and vibrant green bell peppers—sautéed gently until they achieve a deep, aromatic sweetness. This robust base is infused with a proprietary, deeply warming blend of spices, including smoky paprika and fragrant thyme.
Ignite your palate with our signature Akami Heatwave bowl, a vibrant and intensely fresh culinary experience. This masterpiece is anchored by generous cubes of sustainably-sourced, sushi-grade tuna, hand-tossed in our house-made emulsion: a perfect alchemy of creamy mayonnaise and Sriracha. Beneath this fiery centerpiece lies a carefully curated blend of textures: cool shaved English cucumbers, and the sharp crunch of spring onions.
Discover the quintessential soul of the islands with our Jamaican Rice and Peas, the traditional Sunday centrepiece. This is a dish born of patience and rich history, where fluffy, separate grains of long-grain rice are cooked down in a velvet-smooth, opaque broth of pure coconut cream. The "peas"—actually the plump, deep-red kidney beans—lend a subtle, earthy sweetness and a magnificent, light-pink hue to the finished rice. The complex, aromatic foundation is achieved by infusing the entire pot with a generous bouquet of woody fresh thyme, crushed pimento berries (allspice), finely sliced scallions.
