DIY taco night versus a caterer
Some hosts like to do it themselves. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.

Sholden questions
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Nicholas: can you cater afterwards?
Yes. The church itself isn’t where we’d set up, but a hall, field or garden close by with room for the truck or trailer can work well. Let us know the reception address and we will check the access.
Which station is closest to Sholden?
The closest is Deal station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Is there something for non-drinkers?
Always. Aguas frescas and soft drinks are alcohol-free.
How long do you serve for?
We arrive in good time to set up before service. Serving times are agreed with you in advance.
What do you serve?
Mexican street food and drinks: tacos and build-your-own taco bars, burritos, burrito bowls, nachos and quesadillas, with salsas, guacamole and toppings. We also run a Mexican drinks bar.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan the menu with them in mind.
Can you cater in a back garden?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Send us a photo and we’ll talk it through.
Will someone run the bar?
Our bar staff run the bar. Responsible serving comes first.
