"This grant couldn't be more welcome. Chuku's, like other restaurants that don't have a financial reserve, has been battered by lockdowns and the cost of living crisis.
"Every day, we're fighting to stay open to make it to our fourth birthday. This money will make that fight a little easier and allow us to continue celebrating Nigerian culture on Tottenham's High Road for the time being."
The luncheon was hosted at the Four Seasons in Tower Hill, and over 100 entrepreneurs attended with the opportunity to win £806,000 in prizes.
