The restaurant is the brainchild of Yael Peleg, director of strategy and development at the US’s Jewish living division, who came up with the idea while working with vulnerable groups in the area.
She said the People’s Pop-up “will offer a dignified dining experience with linen and china. But unlike most restaurants, ours will only be popping up once a week.
“For a small charge, guests will enjoy a nutritious and filling two-course meal served by volunteer waiting staff. We cannot wait to get started and our volunteer chefs are looking forward to the challenge of coming up with delicious meals from different ingredients.”
More volunteers are being sought for the project to assist with sourcing food, preparing the meals and serving diners. Contact Ms Peleg at ypeleg@theus.org.uk for further information.
