He said: “We've got the sleek tent, we've got the cosy lighting, we've got the pretty planting and you know we've always got the good food. Now all we need is you!”
On Facebook the DejaVu owner said: “We are an Artisan Street Food company founded in 2022 in Armagh. Our aim is to create restaurant quality food without the formality of a restaurant; that you can enjoy under our stunning marquee or in comfort of your own home.
"We've found weekly specials and menus that celebrate seasonal, local produce and keeping an eye on upcoming trends helps not only to keep our customers excited for what’s coming next but also keeps the chefs passionate about what they are creating. We like to pay homage to cuisines from around the world but with our signature Deja Vu twist.
