I have often been approached to do a pop up restaurant but, not being a chef, I thought that I probably wasn't best suited to it, but the idea excited me and so I decided to do a pop-up tearoom. I have always had a slight fantasy-hankering for a cafe with cakes and bakes so this, you could say, is just my cup of tea. At my Nigellissima pop-up tearoom on Saturday 17th November, I shall be cooking and serving a choice (and generous) selection of savoury and sweet bites, Italian-inspired - and including a glass of prosecco - but with all the cosiness of an English afternoon tea.
