Introducing: Holy Trinity Events

Posted on May 25, 2012 by Matt

We’re always keen to push things forward at SFP HQ, so we’re really excited to announce the arrival of ‘Holy Trinity Events’ to our family.

Holy Trinity Events specialises in street food catering that focuses on ‘destinational cooking’…This is to say we focus on the culture of world cities as well as their cuisine, taking in their unique approach to drinks, music and entertainment.

So whether it be the Pizza bars of Naples, the road side Jerk Chicken BBQ’s of Kingston, the beer and burger vibes of NYC or even the pop up hot dog vendors across Berlin, we’ll aim to recreate your perfect holiday experience in your back yard, office or function.

Not only can we offer bespoke food packages, but we’re also able to design and match drinks and entertainment to your party….Some examples? OK, how about a Jerk chicken BBQ, with homemade sexy juice, punch and ice cold red stripe with one of our DJ’s playing reggae and ska spanning the decades? Or Pizzas, Peroni and Prosecco ??

We can tailor our packages to meet any budget and occasion and we like a challenge, so if you’d like to discuss options, fire an email over to matt@holytrinityevents.com

The Big Feast // Alum Rock

Posted on February 21, 2012 by Matt

This Saturday we’re involved in perhaps the most unique event we’ve done so far at the Saltley Methodist Church on Alum Rock Road in Birmingham. The event which is being curated by the wonderful Rosina was set up to showcase the multiple uses of this great building and to show that the Church is still at the heart of this community.

On top of it’s weekly services, the Church hosts regular events that the diverse community attend religiously (excuse the pun!) varying from sewing workshops to kids classes, on top of a communal space for elders of the area to meet up, chew the fat and play some dominoes (as we witnesssed when we showed it).

In a time when the concept of community seems quite foreign, yet is probably needed more than ever, it’s heart warming to be asked to get involved with projects like this.

We toyed with various styles of food and options, but in the end opted for an old fashioned Soup Kitchen vibe, with people queuing up to be served by the chefs who cooked the food from a huge pot….Proper Soul Food!

We’re cooking up a huge pot of our Creole Chilli, made with molasses, coffee, halal mince, chillies, passata, garlic, bay leaves, cinnamon, which will be slow cooked throughout the day and served with some Cajun rice.

For the Vegetarians, we’re serving our classic Vegetable Gumbo, cooked with okra, corn, mushrooms, tomatoes & sweet potatoes cooked upon a base of celery, onions and pepper (The Holy Trinity). This will again be served with our Cajun rice.

We’ll also be serving Chicken Wings with a homemade Jerk rub from local lady ‘Auntie Winnie’.

If you’d like to come along and support this great cause, it’s only £7 (!) and there’s a handful of places left, just fire us an email… matt@soulfoodproject.co.uk
