Episode 94: Eran Tibi

This week on Borderline Podcast Disorder, we’re thrilled to welcome Chef Eran Tibi, the dynamic force behind two of London’s most vibrant Eastern Mediterranean restaurants: Bala Baya and Kapara.

Born in Tel Aviv to a Tunisian father and Syrian mother, Eran’s earliest memories revolve around food—helping his father in the family bakery and trimming okra with his mother . After initially pursuing a career in engineering and marketing, he followed his true passion by enrolling at Le Cordon Bleu in London .

Eran honed his culinary skills under the guidance of renowned chefs at Ottolenghi and Nopi before launching his own ventures . In 2017, he opened Bala Baya in Southwark, offering a sun-drenched, Bauhaus-inspired space that brings the essence of Tel Aviv to London . His second restaurant, Kapara, opened in Soho in 2023, delivering a bold, sensory dining experience that fuses Eastern Mediterranean flavors with a touch of hedonism .

Eran’s innovative approach to cuisine earned him a spot on the 2025 season of Great British Menu, where he represented London and the South East, showcasing dishes inspired by his rich heritage .

Follow Eran’s culinary journey on Instagram: @erantibi.

Tune in to hear Eran discuss his path from Tel Aviv to London’s culinary scene, the stories behind his dishes, and his philosophy on food and life.
