In an age where ‘food culture’ is dominated by TV presenters, celebrity chefs and fast food chains, New Foodies brings real people making real food to the forefront.

Says Adz: “My definition of street food doesn’t have to be in the street, it’s just not a posh restaurant. […] It’s not a huge menu, always just two or three dishes, and the guy or the lady who makes does it all day in front of you.”
