A Mexican chain is set to open its first restaurant in the county at a high-street soft play centre.

Plan Burrito’s next branch in Ramsgate will be run by Shereen Sobia and her mum Jennifer, a venture which is a “dream come true” for the entrepreneur.

Ms Sobia hopes to welcome customers next week to the shop which will serve burritos, tacos and other South American dishes.

The 38-year-old already runs Kids Brighthouse indoor playground at the same site as well as working nights as a carer.

She said: “I’m very nervous about the opening but cannot wait to finish night shifts for the care home I work at currently.

“The soft play has a kitchen so I have some experience but my background is as a pharmacy dispenser. It has been my dream for a long time to open a restaurant.”

Parents and kids using the play centre will be seated at the back of the room, while those without children will sit at the front.

The mum-of-two wanted to do something different as she feels Ramsgate already has a lot of coffee and sweet shops.

She is also passionate about healthy food, adding: “All the food is natural, fresh and authentic.”

Ms Sobia started talks with Plan Burrito last October.

She explained: “I looked at what the public wanted.

“Everyone loves the franchise’s food, so I decided to go for it.”

Diners will be able to eat in or take away.

Ms Sobia’s venue in High Street, Ramsgate will be the seventh location for the chain.
