I often get asked to recommend caterers, supper clubs, cooking classes or artisan producers who provide food reflective of their ESEA (East and South East Asian) heritage.

After spending much of my time sending emails with individual recommendations, I decided to share that knowledge in a public database.

My offering to the community, for free and of my own time, is this below list of ESEA food caterers and suppliers in the UK. Embedded at the bottom of the page is a preview, but I suggest you click the link below to the Notion database, where you can select different preset categories such as ‘Indonesian’ and ‘supper club’ to whittle down your results.

Who is included in the database?

• Supper clubs

• Private chefs / catering

• Cooking classes / workshops

• Street food / pop-ups

• Small food producers

• Stylists and photographers

I do not include restaurants or takeaways, because these are already indexed on Google and easy to find. The database collates those people who are often passed around via word of mouth or are harder to reach.

The database will be updated on an ongoing basis. If you would like to be added to it or want to make a recommendation, please email me.
