Amy Corbin - who owns four South African restaurants known as the Kudu Collective - shows us round her home neighbourhood of Peckham.

Amy runs her bars and eateries with husband, chef Patrick Williams.

Three of the venues are in Peckham, while her new barbecue joint Kudu Grill is just down the road in Nunhead.

She talks us through the trendy south-east London neighbourhood in LondonWorld’s Live Like A Local series.

“We’ve always loved Peckham because it’s such a melting pot of cultures,” Amy says.

“It’s full of young families and people from different backgrounds so the neighbourhood is constantly evolving, which makes it an exciting place to live and work.

“We love being in an environment where everything is independently owned, and there’s a great combination of buzzing nightlife and quiet, residential areas.”

Amy Corbin’s top spots in Peckham

Mr Bao 293 Rye Lane, London SE15 4UA

We love going here when we’re looking for a quick and easy dinner.

It’s really good value but they don’t compromise on quality or taste.

The vibe is always great too.

Forza Wine The Rooftop, 133A Rye Lane, London SE15 4BQ

If you’re in Peckham Rye then Forza Wine is a must.

The views of London are amazing, so it’s the perfect place for fun cocktails and snacks.

Good Cup 44 Nunhead Green, London SE15 3QG

This place is just round the corner from Kudu Grill, so somewhere we go to a lot. They make delicious coffees and bagels.

Rye Lane Nail Bars Rye Lane, Peckham, SE15

It’s not a foodie recommendation but the nail bars on Rye Lane are one of my favourite things about the area! They’re great value.

Frank’s Cafe Bold Tendencies, 7th-10th Floor Multi Storey Car Park, 95A Rye Lane, London SE15 4ST

There’s nothing else like it in London and it’s the perfect summer spot.

It’s great for going with a large group of people who all want different things.

We take our kids here a lot too, they love the views.
