Meet the team behind Nottingham's Mexican street food with a twist

Checking out street food markets or pop-ups can be one of the best ways to find the newest, up-and-coming food businesses in the city. Some of Nottingham's most beloved foodie favourites are, or were, street food spots such as Hip Hop Food Shop or Slice and Brew.

Carolina's Chilli can be found at street food markets all over Nottingham including the Sherwood Vegan Market or the Ruddington market. It's the creation of Mark Walsh and Angela Shepard from Sherwood. As Mark has coeliac disease, the couple created their Mexican vegan menu to be entirely gluten-free.

"Mark and I met in Dublin when we were both working in restaurants. We went on our first date to a vegan Mexican restaurant so when we moved to Nottingham, we couldn't find anything like that. We also couldn't find anything that catered to vegans and coeliacs," Angela said.
