About our Mexican catering in Borden
Planning taco catering for an event in Borden? Mobile Mexican catering means the kitchen comes to you: our truck or trailer parks at your venue and we serve hot food straight from the hatch. No kitchen is needed on site. On the menu are quesadillas, tacos and loaded nachos, which works well for markets and community events and leaving dos and retirement parties.
Somewhere like Borden, a field or garden is often the setting. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. Guests are served from our truck or trailer, or from a serving table nearby, and we plan the service around your numbers.
What happens on the day
We need a level, firm spot we can drive the truck or trailer onto, and we agree power and water arrangements before the day. A photo of the space helps. In Borden, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are generally served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 4:00pm, plan lighting where guests queue and eat.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- We plan a menu that covers every diet.
- We confirm the way in and where we’ll park.
- Guests order at the hatch or build their own at the taco bar.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Before we arrive
- Have level hardstanding or firm ground ready
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Plan a covered area for guests if rain is likely
