Lady Bay Pop Up Cafe

Inspired by my childhood love of home-cooked food, I specialise in creating artisan Indian meals, snacks, pies, pastries, jams, award winning marmalades and baked goods from my kitchen in the heart of Nottingham’s Lady Bay neighbourhood.
I’ve been a professional food & beverage developer all of my working life, but when I was furloughed during the pandemic, I decided to turn my passion & long time dream into my very own micro food business – making the wholesome, tasty things that my friends and family have loved for sale to the public. Fresh interpretations, street food, to classics that are less familiar, and with a twist. Vegan and on trend gloriously innovative dishes always feature boldly in everything I do.

My mission for my Pop Up is to provide Indian food that’s authentic, exciting, healthy and affordable to everyone. The cafe is recognised by Rushcliffe borough council as being committed to sustainability and minimising waste. I use environmentally friendly packaging and have just been recommended by the Great Food Club.

Dolma

I set up my business, Dolma during lockdown. I love cooking in the mediterranean style as all the ingredients used to create classic dishes are fresh and full of flavour, as well as being healthy.
My dishes do vary depending on the market and facilities available. I also like to keep things seasonal where I can.
My mezze box includes a choice of olives, homemade hummus, muhammara, flavoured nuts and bread. I also serve salads, soups, bean dishes and sweet treats such as Turkish delight.

So Good Kombucha

So Good Kombucha is a BIPOC women-owned social venture based out of Derby in the East Midlands. We are a small business with a big dream to do good in the following areas: to introduce the UK to the most delicious and authentically healthy Kombucha money can buy, and to be an eco-friendly business that cares for our planet and employs refugees.

Most fizzy drinks are full of artificial ingredients, sugars, and alcohol that’s bad for you. So Good Kombucha offers a fresh new alternative – a deliciously fizzy and tangy taste that is 100% organic and packed with all the good stuff – probiotics, vitamins, antioxidants, enzymes, and healthy acids. Each bottle is handcrafted in Derbyshire using the So Family recipe and is raw and unfiltered, vegan-friendly, gluten-free, and made with cold-pressed organic ingredients.

We believe that a good fizzy drink can be both super tasty and healthy; and that a Good business is one that cares for our planet and the marginalised in our local communities.
