Leeds Trinity Kitchen has announced its next line-up of up-and-coming street food vendors following the installation of its new bespoke vans, with everything from mac and cheese to rainbow bagels on the menu.
A variety of pre-loved, newly renovated street food vans arrived at Trinity Kitchen last month, including a converted VW Camper Van, a Citroen H van, a horse trailer and even a shipping container, all of which are fully booked until March 2023.
The five new vendors will take residency in the vans from today (23rd March) for nine weeks, including SHOUK!, Cheese Yard, AlleyCats, Jimmy Macks and The Bad Boy Bagel Co.
Taking over the converted horse trailer will be SHOUK! – offering fresh Middle Eastern dishes such as their popular sabich, made with fluffy steamed pita bread, crispy fried aubergine, egg, potato, tahini, amba and salad. SHOUK! also offers a wide range of vegetarian and vegan dishes.
Guests can indulge with a visit to Cheese Yard, which uses locally-sourced ingredients, serving up mac and cheese, halloumi fries and grilled cheese sandwiches.
In Trinity Kitchen’s converted J7 van will be Alleycats, offering a variety of burgers, such as the Consuela burger, consisting of double beef patties, American cheese, nacho cheese sauce, house-made salsa and jalapeños.
Back by popular demand and taking over the converted shipping container is Jimmy Macks, arriving with a concept based around BBQ smoked ‘low & slow’ meats. They will be serving up their renowned slow-smoked meat tacos throughout their stay at Trinity Kitchen.
Finally, guests can take Instagrammable food snaps with the fried chicken rainbow bagels from The Bad Boy Bagel Co, serving up the brightly coloured dough-based treats from the Citroen H van.
Josie Towning, Food and Beverage Manager at Trinity Leeds, said: “After last month’s successful van launch, we are inviting a brand new set of vendors down to try out Trinity Kitchen’s refreshed street food scene.
“It’s proving incredibly popular, and feedback has been fantastic. We’re thrilled that Trinity Kitchen continues to support independent street food traders with a new platform to showcase their talents and abilities, without the need for their own set-up.”
The new street food vendors will be sitting alongside permanent eateries including Archie’s, Pho, Rola Wala, Tortilla, Pizzaluxe, Absurd Bird and Doner Shack.
