The former owner of a popular city restaurant has launched a new solo project.

Cheryl Mullenger ran The Tipsy Vegan alongside Michelle McCabe for eight years until September when it was taken over by Kostas Petrou and Andrew Warren.

She has now developed a brand-new festive venture, providing a cook-at-home version of her signature Wellington from The Tipsy Vegan menu.

Ms Mullenger said: "My signature Mushroom Wellington has been a firm favourite ever since it made its debut appearance at Bia Vegan Diner in 2015.

"It continued to be the star centrepiece at The Tipsy Vegan, being the most popular choice for Christmas dinner.

"So in the Christmas spirit, I created Cheryl‘s Kitchen so that people could order again for this year."

Ms Mullenger also hopes to continue Cheryl's Kitchen beyond the holiday season if demand allows.

She added: "I have lots of ideas for sauces, mayos and spice mixes, for example, to allow people to make a scrambled 'egg' tofu in five minutes - but as yet I'm just going to have to see how Christmas goes."

A regular Wellington serves three to four people and costs £20 while a large Wellington serves six to eight people and costs £40.

Collection is free from the Great Plumstead area and delivery can be arranged within a five-mile radius of the city centre.
