Mexican catering for Liss events
Mexican catering in Liss, from our truck or trailer
A build-your-own taco bar is one of the most sociable ways to feed a crowd. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so each plate is exactly how they like it. At summer garden parties and office lunches and team days, we will put together a menu of burrito bowls, quesadillas and loaded nachos for your guests.
Around Liss, events are often in gardens, fields, local halls or nearby venues. If the road in is narrow or the ground is soft, tell us so we can plan for the truck or trailer. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free guests, with allergen information for everything we serve.
The menu, item by item
Salsas and guacamole
Salsas and guacamole, made fresh for your event, with lime and fresh toppings.
Burritos and burrito bowls

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
