Miranda Roberts is one half of the team that set up Shrimpy, the seafood based street food stall. After seven years of running Shrimpy successfully, and sometimes not so successfully, she's learned a thing or two about what can make an idea work and what can make it fail. Prior to setting up Shrimpy she developed valuable skills for street food in restaurant management. Before that her professional love affair with food began whilst working on Nigella Lawson's Christmas show.
You can generally find her in the back of her van eating street food and claiming that it's the best meal she's ever had. She makes that claim a lot.So you want to set up a food business?
