Nick's Bio
Nick Vadasz is better known as The Picklesman. Inspired by his Hungarian heritage, he founded Vadasz in 2011 in a shipping container in Hackney, East London. He began selling his range of both fermented and vinegar brined pickles, sauerkraut and kimchi at markets across London. Vadasz soon became the first UK based producer of pickles and ferments and is now stocked by major supermarkets and restaurants across the UK. His first book The Pickle Jar, was published in March 2025 by Hamlyn.

About product:
From Britain’s favourite Kimchi and award-winning Sauerkraut to crunchy Garlic & Dill Pickles, tangy Red Onion Pickles, refreshing Smacked Cucumbers and the irresistible Hot & Sweet Jalapeño Relish, Vadasz brings freshness, crunch and serious flavour to your BBQ table.

We handle all types of ingredients in the kitchen at Divertimenti and we are not able to completely allergen free environment, our kitchen is multi-purpose therefore this makes our kitchen unsuitable for those with life- threatening allergies, in such cases as these we would suggest getting in touch with the team to arrange a private lesson in your own home with one of our chefs.
