How our Mexican catering works in Rowlands Castle
Every menu is agreed with you, so fillings might include slow-cooked pork carnitas, chicken tinga or beef birria, alongside vegan choices such as black beans or spiced mushrooms. On the menu are quesadillas, loaded nachos and fresh salsas and guacamole, which works well for garden parties and fundraisers and school events.
In and around Rowlands Castle, gardens and local halls are common choices. If access is tight or the ground is soft, we will plan around it. We’ll check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.
