Peckham Levels will be welcoming two new street food traders to the food hall on Level 6 this February: Senegalese soul food brand Little Baobab and sustainable sourdough pizzeria, Well Kneaded.
Little Baobab will launch on February 10, with a free night of Senegalese live music, tasters and bespoke cocktails. Well Kneaded will follow with a launch on February 11, with half-price pizzas all weekend, and during Half Term (until February 19) when customers purchase a pizza, they’ll be able to get a kid’s pizza at half price.
For the past five years, chef Khadim Mane of Little Baobab has been making waves in London’s African dining scene, from his popular East London pop-ups and catering stints across the city, to trading at UK festivals WOMAD and We Out Here. Little Baobab’s new spot on Level 6 will be Khadim’s first permanent venture in South London, where he’ll be cooking-up a selection of daily dishes that champion the fresh, flavourful and colourful style of Senegalese cooking.
Headed up by husband-and-wife team, Laurence and Bridget, Well Kneaded crafts seasonally changing wood-fired sourdough pizzas, salads and side dishes. All ingredients are sourced from hyper-local low-intervention producers and suppliers, the majority of whom are within Greater London, such as Sutton Community Farm and Paradise Cooperative.
This will be Well Kneaded’s second permanent venture south of the river, following the 2018 opening of their neighbourhood pizzeria Earlsfield.
