LabTech has announced that the Indonesian restaurant concept will debut at Buck Street Market, the UK’s first eco-conscious consumer market.
Rendang + Rice is bringing Indonesian family-favourite dishes to Camden, featuring the eponymous slow-cooked rendang curry with sustainably sourced beef, and an array of bao, both sweet and savoury. Half the menu is plant based, and in-line with Buck Street Market’s environmental credentials, each recipe is designed to minimise food waste and all food will be served in eco packaging with biodegradable cutlery.
Rendang + Rice will have a take-away focus, with space for two covers, and has been designed to transport diners to a tropical place, the fragrant dishes reinforced by Indonesian-inspired design and finishing touches.
Commenting on the opening, Maggie Milosavljevic, LabTech’s Commercial Director, said: “Buck Street Market has fast become one of London’s most exciting dining destinations, where we have been able to blend sustainability with the nurturing of young brands such as Rendang + Rice. They will add another layer of international flavour and authenticity to the already vibrant market, and with Indonesian cuisine growing in popularity, it is set to be a hit with visitors.”
Jasmin Ayling, owner of Rendang + Rice, added: “I have always dreamed of opening a restaurant and I wanted to capture a part of my family story with Rendang + Rice. All the food you find on the menu has been made fresh and from scratch, from the curry pastes to the sambal, pickles, sauces and ice creams. As a dedicated market for the eco-conscious, Buck Street matches our ethos of sustainability perfectly, and with Camden’s street food culture this is a great opportunity and location for our emerging business.”
