A new "luxury" Afro-Asian restaurant and lounge is opening in Dagenham at the end of the month.

The CEO Lounge is set to open its doors in New Road, Dagenham on November 30 - offering Afro-Fusion and international cuisine, signature cocktails, and entertainment.

In a Facebook post announcing the opening, the lounge promises guests live samba dancers, "incredible" music and "unforgettable" performances.

On its website, the restaurant says: "We blend luxury, culture, and community to offer every guest a VIP experience."

A £500 reservation for the grand opening includes one bottle of champagne, one bottle of brandy or whisky, one bottle of Belaire and a "CEO platter".

The CEO Lounge has also applied for a premises licence to sell alcohol between 5pm and 12.30am from Monday to Wednesday, and until 2.30am from Thursday to Sunday.
