A popular Middle Eastern restaurant has closed after more than two years at Wapping Wharf. Jigaraki is one of several food outlets to shut down in recent months within the Cargo development in the city centre.
The street food restaurant set up its first permanent site in August 2020 after five years of trading at festivals across the UK. The concept was inspired by owner Ben Williams' trip to Isfahan, Iran, where he fell in love with the bustling food stalls known as Jigaraki.
Sharing the announcement on Instagram on New Year's Eve, the restaurant said: "We have decided to press the pause button and close Jigaraki at Cargo 2. Our last service at Cargo 2 will be tomorrow evening. We will be taking some time to work out what is next for Jigaraki.
