Mexican catering for South Hayling events
Step by step
Once service is over, we pack down and clear our own area. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. Around midsummer it stays light in South Hayling until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
- First, send us a few details about your event.
- You get a sample menu and a quote.
- We agree access, the serving spot, power and water.
- We arrive, set up and serve from the hatch.
- Once service ends, we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
