The Hip-Hop Chip Shop

Do you like a nice chippy? Do you like hip-hop? If so, you’ll love ‘The Hip-Hop Chip Shop’. Even if you don’t like hip-hop, their food, which they describe as “untraditional fish and chips”, is sensational. So sensational that they won the ‘British Street Food: Van of the Year’. Apart from the food, what’s so cool about The Hip-hop Chip Shop is that their van is a giant boom-box. How cool is that? Plus, their website is very interesting. They have a widget that runs a series of quotes from famous rappers who have referenced fish, you’ll have to see it to understand. They regularly set-up shop at The Kitchens, Spinningfields in Manchester where they’re competing with 5 other stalls to win their own bricks and mortar shop. They also set-up at various other locations. See their website for more information.

Mei Mei’s Chinese Street Cart

Mei Mei’s street cart is probably the most exceptional Chinese street-food stall to hit the UK. Their menu is not what you’ll get down at your local Chinese take-out, but rather an authentic selection of Chinese comfort foods coming from a family of Chinese-Americans, served up by a (now London based) brother and sister duo who want to change the way the UK thinks about Chinese food. They have even staked claim to the UK’s first Jian Bing – a savoury crepe that is as good for breakfast as it is in the evening with a cold beer. Mei Mei set-up at various locations around London, Leeds, Manchester and beyond. Take a look at their website for more information. Mei Mei Chinese street cart
