Our Story

Founded by food lover Lee, Kanji was born from a passion for the unbeatable combination of crispy chicken katsu and rich, flavourful sauces. Inspired by Japanese comfort food but adapted for London’s bustling street food markets, Kanji has quickly become a favourite at the Southbank Centre Food Market. Every dish is prepared fresh and topped with spring onion, crispy onion bits, and Lee’s signature sauces, ensuring each bite is as satisfying as the last. Whether you’re new to katsu or already a fan, Kanji delivers a true street food experience.
