To say that Suzy Simpson and Paul Thomson didn't expect to be selling streetfood from Barmouth beach hut with only a three induction hob after meeting in the Outer Hebrides is an understatement. Even more of a surprise to them is they have been shortlisted, purely based on customer nominations, for a BBC Food & Farming Award for their cute Celtic Cabin which serves Mexican wraps, cakes, coffees and anything else Paul puts his mind to creating in their kitchen.
Regular customers and visitors get to sample freshly caught mackeral fritters or pulled pork while drinking in views of the Llyn Peninsula or catching a glimpse of a pod of dolphins out to sea.
It couldn't be more perfect for the outdoorsy couple, who wanted to take seaside snacks a different way from your regular hot dogs and chips, and who came to be plonked on the seafront in Barmouth completely by default after returning from their travels to New Zealand.
