“Nigerian Fast Food” in London? – I Go Chop Restaurant Review ...
food ambience value menu drinks
I Go Chop, self-proclaimed as “the world’s FIRST concept based Nigerian takeaway” opened in June 2017 in Camberwell, South East London.
Onto the food itself… I ordered one of their famous burritos with a filling of jollof rice and plantain & turkey gizzard (also known as gizzdodo).
I can’t describe the jollof rice inside the burrito as anything other than “really tasty”.
It met my expectations of jollof rice and it wasn’t too hot, which is a positive if you have a low tolerance for spicy food, and a negative if you’re looking for more of a kick I guess.
Dapo on the other hand thought the jollof rice was reminiscent of “party jollof rice”, which has a slightly smoky taste.

Camberwell is a leafy corner of south east London that has seen many new restaurant openings in recent years and is fast becoming one of London’s most desirable areas.
The quality of ingredients is excellent, with Strianese San Marzano tomatoes and their own Camberwell scotch bonnet ‘nduja (made in collaboration with The Camberwell Arms over the road), topping the pizzas.
We like it best for slices of squidgy, iced carrot cake and huge wedges of towering sponge topped with crazy arrangements of sweets and biscuits from Cat Food Cakes in Lewisham.
The rest of the meze are pretty standard to be honest, but their chopped salad with white Turkish cheese is always fresh and bright, a great accompaniment to the Adana kebab or chicken you’ll be having to follow.
Visit the takeaway counter at the front of the shop, where you will be able to order an Adana which comes in an impossibly thin yet sturdy flatbread with a yoghurt and chilli sauce, grilled veg and salad.
