01

The House of GLS

Since 2018, GLS has fed birthdays, Sunday lunches, office mornings and owambe Saturdays. A kitchen that cooks the way home does — and a bakery that bakes like it means it.

  • 01

    Kitchen

    Nigerian classics, cooked to order and packed hot.

  • 02

    Breads, pastries and celebration cakes, out of the oven daily.

Peppered Chicken

Grilled first, then drowned in rodo

For when everyone is coming

Puff-puff, samosa, spring rolls, gizdodo and grills — boxed for the office or trayed for the owambe.

The Kitchen

Cooked the long way.

  1. 01

    Market, early

    Peppers, tomatoes, fish and greens come in fresh every day. If it isn’t right, it doesn’t come in.

  2. 02

    Slow over heat

    Stews are fried down until the oil rises. Jollof takes its smoke from the base of the pot. Nothing here is hurried.

  3. 03

    Finished to order

    Every plate and pack is portioned when you order, so it reaches you the way it left the stove.

04

The Bakery

Out of the oven, into your hands.

Croissants laminated by hand. Agege loaves the way they should be. Celebration cakes made to order — tell us the day, and we’ll take care of the rest.
