This weekend saw the soft launch of a new venue in Peckham, Jumbi, described as "a hang out centred around music, food and drink."
The project founders, Bradley Zero & Nathanael Williams, are aiming to celebrate their Caribbean heritage through a range of West Indian food and drink. "The drinks menu will reflect the small island heritage of myself & Nathanael," explains Bradley, "with a slowly growing rum focussed cocktail list."
As for the food, that's currently being supplied by London street food folk Bakes' n stuffingz, whose menu focuses on St Lucian bakes. If you haven't encountered those before they're a dumpling with fillings that include jerk chicken, salted cod or pulled jerk jackfruit.
Music's a huge part of the equation and to that end, Bradley's brought his entire vinyl collection to the space along with a turntable in a bespoke booth and vinyl library. There's also a covered outdoor terrace with its own bar which is going to be a hot hangout this summer.
