I had the pleasure to dine with the founding owners Eric Mushel and Tom Cole of this new and in-beta company called Feast Happy with 5 other foodie bloggers through Zomato. It’s a new gourmet food-tech delivery service and is certainly set to take the London food community by storm. The Feast Happy concept, a first for London, offers a platform that delivers top restaurant quality meals from a community of award winning chefs to give busy Londoners that are obviously time starved the option to be healthy and eat better.
The Feast Happy menu currently offers meals from the award-winning Chefs Margot Henderson and Anna Tobias of Rochelle Canteen – a TimeOut top 50 restaurant in London. meals are prepared fresh each day with a focus on healthy, locally sourced ingredients.
Dishes are par-cooked in small-batches and arrive chilled for the customer to provide the gentle final push into the oven for a restaurant quality meal completed in 10-20 minutes – dinner is ready when you are.
Feast Happy is environmentally conscious with all deliveries made on bicycles, utilising a hi-tech logistics system – allowing the customer to track the driver to their door, and with 100% recyclable packaging mainly constructed from bagasse – the fibres left over from pressed sugar cane, meaning no trees were felled to bring you your meal!
For our starters we had the Pepper and Feta Salad; the portion was just right – it was a well complimented dish packed with flavours from the peppers. So simple yet delicious and beautifully presented at the table.
As for our main, I had the Oxtail & Barley Stew with Creamy Horseradish. I have probably had oxtail once before but a much smaller portion so I was surprised to see how large the portion was! It was a hearty meal and the oxtail was surprisingly tender with a good kick from the creamy horseradish (this meal is available on their menu).
We had a fabulous night; sharing our passion for food, eating food and to build a stronger foodie community! Our evening ended with a sweet treat – Double cream over Hazelnut & Chocolate Tart. These guys are totally wonderful and wants to change how we consume takeaways!
Feast Happy was started by Eric Mushel and Tom Cole, two friends based in London with a passion for good food and a healthy lifestyle. The idea began after arriving home from long days at work with no time or energy to cook a nice meal from scratch. They still wanted to eat healthy, and open a nice bottle of wine, but the only other option was ordinary takeaway that is too often greasy, expensive and hard to time. The core belief is around amazing chefs cooking the meals they love, and to give London this option to eat better, conveniently.
