New street food vendor opens in Ripon
A new street food vendor has opened in Ripon.
Called Squid and Tonic, the venture was founded by Paul Page and Carol Williams and aims to serve high quality street food around North Yorkshire.
Mr Page, who has more than 30 years experience in catering, and Ms Williams, who previously worked in the hospitality industry, came up with the idea to launch the family business and tour different locations serving food.
The vendor serves a range of dishes including wood fired pizzas, noodles, grilled seafood and meat flatbread.
Mr Page, who describes himself as a passionate foodie, said the idea for the name came from the bar in the couple’s garden.
He said:
Paul and Carol serve up wood fired pizzas.
Mr Page added that the business travels up to 50 miles for functions and events.
The couple will next be travelling the short journey to North Stainley to serve wood fired pizzas at the village hall on Friday, October 6.
