Reduction Raider breaks bread with Anshu Ahuja of DabbaDrop.

Alright Raiders

DabbaDrop is the brainchild of Anshu Ahuja and Renee Williams, two Hackney neighbourhood friends who bonded over their love of cooking and a desire to make a small difference to the planet and for their children. Anshu is a Mumbai-born, Hackney-living passionate home cook who in 2014, following a successful career in TV production, was selected as one of the finalists on the food incubator scheme, Kitchenette. The scheme allowed Anshu to launch her pop-up Indian tapas concept, Pao Wow, to critical acclaim at Stevie Parle’s Dock Kitchen. New Zealand native Renee has 12 years’ experience with a background in restaurant operations and design, as well as events production at Soho House, Caprice Holdings and Caravan restaurants. Anshu and Renee brought together their complementary skills to develop DabbaDrop; a food delivery concept, launching the takeaway curry service in Hackney in November 2018. In Summer 2021 Marie Claire magazine awarded DabbaDrop winner of the ‘Best Sustainable Food Delivery Initiative’. @dabbadrop www.dabbadrop.co.uk
