DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone has to serve all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, we open the hatch when you’re ready, and we serve your guests fresh for the agreed time. December events in Shootash lose the light at about 4:00pm, so choose a well-lit spot for the truck or trailer. At midsummer, sunset is around 9:25pm.
- Share your plans for the event.
- We suggest fillings and dishes for every diet.
- Power, water and timings are agreed with you or the venue.
- Service runs at the times you choose.
- Once service ends, we tidy up and go.
