At Kudu, the sides get just as much attention as everything else on the menu.

These carrots are tossed in ras el hanout, then cooked over the braai until smoky, charred and sweet, before being served with creamy goat’s curd.

Fire touches so much of what we do here - not just the obvious dishes, but the vegetables, garnishes and smaller plates too. It’s a big part of the flavour that runs through the menu.

A Kudu classic for a reason.

If you’re after South African food in London, come and see us at @kudurestaurant.

A lot of what we cook comes back to the flavours of the food I grew up with and the way we cook back home, just done in our own way here in Marylebone.

There’s not much better than a proper braaibroodjie straight off the fire.

Cheese, tomato and onion, cooked slowly over the braai until the bread’s properly toasted and the middle’s melted.

This is how I make mine.

We couldn’t stay away from South London for long. 👋

Back to the neighbourhood where so much of our story began - only this time, we’re bringing chicken.

Braai Bird is our new South African wood-fired rotisserie spot, opening this November on Nunhead Lane. Really good chicken, cooked slowly over fire, crispy chips, plenty of sauce and the kind of food you want to get stuck into with a table full of mates.

It feels very good to be coming home.

See you soon, South London ❤️‍🔥

The most important part of any braai, according to these two.

Marshmallows, chocolate and cooking over fire. S’mores on the braai with my little sous chefs.

One year in Marylebone.

A year ago, we opened the doors to our new home on Moxon Street.

After years of Kudu in Peckham, moving across London and beginning a new chapter was a big moment for us. We wanted to bring everything we’d learnt along the way with us, while creating something that felt like its own restaurant - a new kitchen, a new neighbourhood and a new space to keep evolving what Kudu could be.

Over the past twelve months, we’ve welcomed old friends from Peckham, met so many new ones in Marylebone, cooked a lot of food, poured a lot of wine and watched this space slowly begin to feel like home.

Restaurants only really come to life because of the people inside them, so thank you to our brilliant team and to every single person who has eaten, drunk, celebrated, recommended us, returned for another dinner or simply stopped by to say hello.

Here’s to year two.

Sundays are better when there’s something in the middle of the table.

Our Sunday Sharers are made for two or more, with a choice of half Somerset Saxon chicken with vin jaune, padrón pepper and king oyster mushrooms, or hot smoked sea trout with honey mustard and crème fraîche.

Add a few sides, order a bottle for the table and settle in.

Available every Sunday at Kudu Marylebone.

Roosterkoek straight off the braai.

Quite literally “grill cakes”, these are traditional South African bread rolls cooked over the coals - crisp and smoky on the outside, soft in the middle and best eaten while they’re still warm.

One of the simplest things you can put on a braai, and probably one of my favourites.

For tonight’s chef spotlight, we’re thrilled to introduce @patrickwilliamschef to Who’s Cooking Dinner? 🍽️✨

Chef Patrick Williams is from Durban, South Africa, where he grew up on chicken curries, oxtail potjies and anything cooked over the braai. He trained at La Colombe and Camphors on the Vergelegen wine estate in Cape Town before moving to London to work with Robin Gill at The Dairy and The Manor.

In 2017, Patrick opened @kudurestaurant Restaurant with his wife Amy Corbin, bringing Kudu’s South African heritage and seasonal open fire cooking to life across his restaurant. Michelin recognised with a Bib Gourmand, he is known for uncompromising standards and precision in every dish.

We can’t wait to see what he creates at The Dorchester on 14th September 🧡

📅 Monday 14th September at @thedorchester

Cape Malay flavours are something I come back to again and again.

This monkfish dish at Kudu is served with green tomato and a Cape Malay sauce - fragrant, gently spiced and with enough acidity to keep the whole dish feeling fresh.

Late summer braai food.

Ripe nectarines, tomatoes and a few simple ingredients to bring everything together - sweet, sharp, juicy and exactly the sort of thing I want alongside something straight off the fire.

This is one to make while the nectarines are still good.
