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
