Diary of a Kitchen Lover, founded by Nigerian food creator and chef Tolani Tayo‑Osikoya (known as “Chef T”) — is a dynamic culinary brand revolutionising how Nigerians approach food, kitchens and home cooking.
With over 2 million followers across Instagram and other social platforms, the brand has grown from a simple blog into a full-fledged food-media and service enterprise.
Chef T began sharing recipes and cooking tips under the Diary of a Kitchen Lover banner as a side-passion while working in digital strategy.
Her unique appeal comes from making food accessible and exciting — she pairs everyday Nigerian staples with elevated presentation, clear instructions and vibrant visuals, thereby turning cooking into both lifestyle and creative expression.
Beyond content creation, the brand offers meal-plans, private catering, studio bookings and kitchen-design advice.
The result: a community of home-cooks, aspiring chefs and food lovers who look to Chef T not just for recipes, but for aspiration and inspiration.
