The Haggerston man who founded a cult video recipe channel last year has launched a delivery-only restaurant to go alongside it.

Since its launch in March 2016, Twisted has amassed a following of eight million across Facebook and Instagram, and its videos garner 200 million global views per month.

Jamie Bolding who lives next to Haggerston Park, founded media company Jungle Creations three years ago. Twisted is one of the firm’s 16 channels on social media.

The entrepreneur, who employs 150 staff in London, New York and LA offices and turns over millions of pounds a year, decided to branch out in the hospitality industry.

Now you can watch the recipe videos and click to order through UberEats and Deliveroo – if you live within a two-mile radius of its HQ in Aldgate East. The menu includes burgers and vegan options like Seoul vings – a meat-free take on chicken wings.
