Jago - Tower Hamlets
Jago
Description
Located in the heart of Shoreditch, Jago offers a unique dining experience with influences from Ashkenazi, Southern European, and Middle Eastern cuisine. The interior is quirky and bright, resembling a mix between a tube carriage and a bike shed. Despite some ventilation issues, the menu offers creative and delicious dishes such as sardines on toast and grilled manouri. Head chef Louis Solley, formerly of Ottolenghi, impresses with his innovative approach to cooking. Although the paper used for the menu may have an unpleasant smell, the overall dining experience at Jago is highly recommended, especially for those looking for a quiet brunch away from the usual hustle and bustle of Brick Lane.

When I first heard that jago opened a restaurant with a focus on Ashkenazi dishes, I was intrigued. my inheritance is Ashkenazi Jewish, which means that my roots can be traced back to Central and Eastern Europe in opposition to Sephardi Jewish women and girls, mostly from Spain and Portugal. the ashkenazi and Sephardi Jews subscribe above all the same religious ideas, but some different interpretations lead to a slight difference in culture and practice. an example is passover, as my onkel is a sephardi, he has some different traditions, for example, he eats rice while ashkenzi juden avoid it. what exactly did this restaurant specifically make ashkenazi in contrast to Jewish? to be honest...read more
