LEBA began in Budapest in 2023 with one idea: plant-based dinners built around guest chefs and tasting menus. After 11 sold-out pop-ups, we brought LEBA to London in June 2026 - same concept, new city.

The name comes from my son, Ábel, read backwards. Later I discovered that in Yiddish, Leba means “beloved”, which felt right.

Today, Leba is a travelling dinner series: one chef, one menu, one night.

Small evenings. Limited seats.

After 11 dinners in Budapest , collaborating with Michelin-recognised and award-winning chefs — Leba is now coming to the UK.

Leba is founded and curated by István Tamás, who hosts each dinner personally.
