Breath is food
The body eats food
This Body rests on the breath
Breath rests on the body
Food is resting on food
The one who knows this becomes rich in food and great in fame
(Taittiriya Upanishad 11.7)
17th-20th April
Spanish Pop Up at our 11 Chillies Express kitchen down at the Station Approach. All food will be vegetarian and they will have a menu with items and ingredients.
A bit about Tortillas Together….
“My name is Elena, I’m Spanish from Zaragoza, always passionate about food and learned that from my grandma and mum. Helped them in the kitchen, tasting their food and helping them. Lots of memories in the kitchen. Last year I decided with my partner to create ‘Tortillas together’ (on Instagram as @tortillastogether).
We have done a few Frome independent markets and a few weeks ago we’ve done our first Spanish pop up in Frome. We’re excited to be hosting our Pop Up at Lungi Babas next week! Come down and say hello and try our food.”
We are a Frome based business on a mission to provide nourishing food at affordable prices, using ingredients that are as seasonal, locally sourced and environmentally friendly as we can. Cooked from scratch, using whole spices and fresh herbs. Yum!
Life is too short to eat food that isn’t tasty and satisfying. Our food includes all six tastes of nature at every meal so that the major food groups and nutrients are represented and you feel satisfied. We mix home cooked food made from scratch with stories and community focused events.
Inspired by his mother’s wonderful home cooking, Mahesh set up Lungi Babas in 2014 in Frome. Our products and services include our regular street food lunches and evening Thali. We also do cooking workshops, bespoke events catering and popup events.
We use more sustainable packaging, compost our food waste with local composting org Loop, and our website is powered by an ethical, green co-op (Webarchitects Co-operative). We aim for minimum food waste (including asking for orders by 4pm for evening meals) and use local resources when we can, including local Frome Field 2 Fork veggies.
“Curry with a C which also stands for Community, Compassion and Carefree Fun. Mahesh gives his customers a consideration which is rarely seen these days and his generosity to those in need is legendary… And what’s more the food recipes come direct from his mother and are traditional and authentic. If you are a curry lover you can’t go wrong here!”
We serve tasty, healthy and affordable lunch and dinner in Frome for you as an individual or business.
Our venue: 11 Chillies Express (Train Station Approach, BA11 1RE). Sorry, Loop de Loop (located in Market Yard Car Park, Justice Lane, BA11 1BE) closed for maintenance until further notice.
“The food is always delicious and freshly cooked, I travel a round trip of 13 miles to enjoy the exciting flavours…”
