Less waste, more taste! Big Zuu opens pop-up restaurant serving reimagined waste food ahead of new series airing on UKTV's Dave and UKTV Play

12/09/2023

12th September 2023

Big Zuu launches pop-up restaurant, Big Zuus Big Eatery, in Londons West End this October

Restaurant focuses on turning food waste into gourmet bites inspired by BAFTA-winning series Big Zuus Big Eats

Pop up will be free to general public ahead of the fourth series of Big Zuus Big Eats on Dave and UKTV Play

Set menu includes 3 courses, curated by Big Zuu

Big Zuus Big Eatery will be open on Friday 6th and Saturday 7th October via bookings on Eventbrite

Award-winning TV channel Dave is set to open Big Zuus Big Eatery this Autumn - a pop-up restaurant featuring ingredients that have been entirely recycled. It intends to highlight the huge amount of food waste ahead of Big Zuus forthcoming new series Big Zuus Big Eats on Dave and free streaming service UKTV Play at the end of the month.

On the Friday 5th and Saturday 6th October, Big Zuus Big Eats will become a restaurant and take over well-known West End food spot, Maison Bab. Big Zuus Big Eatery, the aptly named pop-up restaurant will coincide with the release of series four of Big Zuus Big Eats and be open to the public for two nights only, featuring a menu curated by Zuu himself.

The eatery will offer up a little eat followed by a three-course meal inspired by the show to encourage people to rethink their food consumption and waste habits.

The menu is ingeniously crafted to celebrate the UKs most overlooked and underappreciated food products, transforming waste items into gourmet wonders that are packed with irresistible flavour. Everyday ingredients such as cucumbers, bread and cheese are incorporated to create dishes such as Buffalo chicken shawarma with blue cheese sauce and apple slaw and salted cod & monkfish croquettes with tzatziki.

Big Zuu said:

You know Im all about serving up vibes on TV! Well now Im gassed to bring the vibes from your screens to the streets with my pop-up joint to celebrate the fourth series of Big Zuus Big Eats! Bored of your leftovers or always throwing food out? Were here to remix tired, bland ingredients and spice em up! For two nights only were dishing out epic bites that are big on flavour and little on waste - come through and lets feast!

The new series of Daves BAFTA-winning entertainment series Big Zuus Big Eats sees Big Zuu, Tubsey and Hyder create a range of inspired dishes for highly acclaimed athletes, presenters, comedians, and musicians.

The star-studded celebrity line-up joining Big Zuu, Tubsey and Hyder in the Big Eats HQ this series includes British rapper Aitch, Olympic Gold medallist and marathon champion Sir Mo Farah, and Arsenal football legend turned football commentator Alex Scott. The new series will air on Dave and UKTV Play from Monday 25th September.
