JKS Restaurants was set up in 2008 by siblings Jyotin, Karam and Sunaina and currently operate 30 brands in London.
Their philosophy is based on an attitude of innovation, boundary pushing and spontaneity with a goal to foster a culture of culinary obsession, genuine hospitality, entrepreneurial spirit and family values across the group. Across the JKS sites, there are 47 ambassadors to represent different issues that are important to the group. The four ambassador programmes are:
• Sustainability
• Wellbeing
• Equality, diversity and inclusion
• Project management
Lyle’s, Kitchen Table and Bibi have all been awarded stars from Food Made Good demonstrating their commitment to sustainability.
In Autumn 2023 BAO ran workshops focusing on waste and fermentation as part of the School of BAO.
