  • Joke Bakare at Chishuru
    Jul 15 2026
    Joké Bakare didn't follow the traditional path to becoming one of Britain's most celebrated chefs. Before earning a Michelin star for her restaurant Chishuru, she worked in health and safety, taught herself to cook professionally, and built a restaurant culture that's quietly challenging some of the industry's oldest traditions. In this conversation with Patrick Spicer, Joké shares why she believes great leadership starts with collaboration rather than hierarchy, how opening Chishuru on a shoestring budget shaped everything from the menu to the toilets, and why modern West African cooking deserves room to evolve. She reflects on becoming the first Black female chef in the UK to receive a Michelin star, the responsibility that comes with that recognition, and why she's determined to create a kinder kitchen than the ones she's heard about. There are stories about disastrous fish orders, anxious moments cooking outside her own kitchen, Irish spice bags, Nigerian aunties who aren't afraid to critique the menu, and whether The Bear really captures life behind the pass.
