Fried dumplings, sweet plantain and smoky beans, inspired by the Caribbean breakfast table and cooked fresh in Newport.
In a Caribbean home, breakfast is not an afterthought. It is fried dumplings straight from the pan, plantain cooked until it caramelises, something warm and well seasoned in the middle of the plate, and enough of it to start the day properly. Rooted Soul brings that table to Newport.
Our breakfast is inspired by the Jamaican and Caribbean breakfasts our founder Careena grew up with. Two golden fried dumplings, sometimes called Johnny cakes, sit alongside sweet fried plantain, smoky beans cooked with peppers and onion, and scrambled tofu seasoned with turmeric and herbs. It is all plant based, cooked by hand in small batches, and it costs £9.
If you want a Caribbean breakfast you can eat on the move, the Breakfast Wrap is £7: beans, tofu, plantain and spinach rolled in a tortilla. Both are delivered across Newport from 10am.

The Caribbean breakfast plate, cooked the family way.
Kneaded by hand, crisp outside and soft within.
Fried until golden and caramelised at the edges.
From Careena's kitchen in Newport to your table.
