Bunnychow - Shoreditch

Before you think this blog post is going to be about a big fat bunny who eats too much food think again. No I promise I haven't lost my marbles stick with me.

Bunnychow started its life on four wheels rather than four legs as a pop up street food experience. Serving its tasty Bunny Chow to London foodies who just couldn't get enough. 

But when they got so popular they set up a new pop up shop in Boxpark in Shoreditch.

What is Bunnychow I hear you cry? 

         Bunnychow menu

A little loaf, hollowed out and filled with some juicy chunky pieces of meat, fish or veg. 

Bunnychow

Pulled pork, pickles and BBQ sauce. 
Pulled pork

Originating from South Africa, you use the bread to scoop and eat, best of all you don't need a knife or fork.

Bunny Chow comes in lots of yummy offerings: 

  • Monkey Gland - Meatballs, peppers and BBQ sauce 
  • Bunny Dog- Sausage, onion gravy and blue cheese
  • Bunny Chowder - smoked haddock, spring onions, quail egg and classic chowder sauce. 
  • Pork and Pickle - pulled pork, pickles and BBQ sauce. 
  • Boston Beans - Baked beans, spinach and smoked cheese.
  • Ginger Chicken - chicken, squash, bean sprouts and Thai Ginger sauce. 

Personal favourites are the Monkey Gland and Bunny Dog.

  5. I just love the idea of using bread as your bowl!! I don't think I'd ever want a normal bowl again after that!
