Jess and Jo Edun learned about Nigerian cooking and dishes from their Nigerian grandma. The sisters started their food careers with a residency in a pub whilst catering corporate lunches to clients. Five years on in 2022, they opened The Flygerians restaurant in Peckham Palms, a black female-led space supporting start-up businesses. They made it into Vogue in a round-up of ‘the best black-owned restaurants in London’ and have since attracted plenty of media attention and made several TV appearances including Channel 4's Sunday Brunch.
