A family-inspired Afro-Caribbean food stall is touring around the local area for 'everyone to try' - including Sandbach.

The Sunshine Street Food Company was started five years ago in Crewe by business owner, Mr Martin Mitchell- with the food stall picking up to pre COVID-19 trade levels.

"I love the food my family makes and didn't see it represented enough at festivals," said Mr Mitchell.

The Sunshine Street Food Company sells Afro-Caribbean food - serving the likes of jerk chicken, halloumi and goat curry (Ryan Parker).

The Sunshine Street Food Company was inspired by Mr Mitchell's family - fusing Caribbean and African food together.

Mr Mitchell told Nub News: "My family inspired me to open this food stall. I checked out a number of stalls at festivals and didn't really like what I was eating.

"I thought Caribbean cuisine was being forgotten about and wanted to open it up to everyone to try.

"It was my love and passion for cooking which ultimately made me want to run this stall - selling the food I grew up on.

"I've been cooking all my life. I live in Crewe and enjoy trying my stall out at different locations.

The Sunshine Street Food Company was inspired by Martin Mitchell's family - fusing Caribbean and African food together (Ryan Parker).

"My mum's Jamaican and my dad's Kenyan. On my dad's side, his mum is Indian. There are a lot of food influences.

'My food represents all of my families' heritage fused together."

Mr Mitchell takes his food stall around multiple locations in Crewe - including Electra Way, Tom's Tap and The Raven.

He also sets up in the likes of Sandbach at The Military Arms in Congleton Road and occasionally at Sandbach United Football Club in Hind Heath Road.

The Sunshine Street Food Company is open on Electra Way (outside Radius) from 11:30am to 1:30pm every Wednesday and Friday (Ryan Parker).

Mr Mitchell said: "My most popular items are the jerk chicken, the jerk chicken and halloumi and curried goat rice and peas.

"I have other items that people like when I move to different places - such as chicken and sweet potato curry.

"Sometimes I get private lunch time bookings for different locations.

"On the days I am not here I will be travelling around to different companies.

When at Tom's Tap, Mr Mitchell usually sets up his food stall from 6pm to 9pm.

The business owner is always looking to try his food stall in new locations and is encouraging new customers to try the food.

Mr Mitchell added: "People should broaden their horizons to try different cuisines. Here you can get the taste of the Caribbean and African blended into one.

"People can come and try something totally different to what they're used to.

The Sunshine Street Food Company is operating outside Tom's Tap, Thomas Street, from 6pm to 9pm on Saturday 1, 15 and 29 April (Ryan Parker).

"Most importantly of all, I always wake up in the morning feeling happy and really lucky to do this job."
