The Orbital Shopping Park once again played host to a pop-up food festival last weekend (10 and 11 June) with people coming from far and wide to sample some of the culinary marvels on offer.

The festival saw artisan vendors serve up a whole host of cuisines from around the world, including Russian dumplings and kebabs from Soviet Kitchen, and loaded American hot dogs and burgers. The Rovin’ Bar also mixed up some of its signature jam jar drinks.

Jamie Turner, centre manager, said: “The Eats from the Streets concept was borne out of the pop-up festival and street food trends. As the popularity of both show no sign of slowing, it’s no surprise that we’re hosting the event again this year.

"We’ve really enjoyed bringing new and exciting foods from across the globe to shoppers’ doorsteps, and this year’s event shaped up even bigger and better – with more stalls and more flavours on offer! It’s great to be able to support local traders alongside our national retailers.”
