About
Lelani Lewis, a chef, food stylist, and culinary activist, creates inspiring audience experiences with her innovative and vibrant approach to food. Growing up in South London with Grenadian and Irish heritage, Lelani brings this deep connection to culinary history from around the world to her work.
She became obsessed with the idea of creating a mainstream platform for Caribbean food, modernising it and making it more accessible. With this in mind, she started Nyam, a catering company and roaming restaurant.
Whilst on her entrepreneurial journey, she realised just how unique and diverse Caribbean cuisine was. Its rich history inspired her to explore the cultural impact of food and how the world’s ingredients unravelled beautiful and tragic stories.
