How our Mexican party catering works in Dalston
Mexican street food suits birthdays, garden parties and all kinds of celebrations. The truck or trailer is a focal point, and every plate goes out hot. For baby celebrations and retirement celebrations, we will put together a menu of quesadillas, burritos and loaded nachos and more.
In Dalston, a back-garden party is the usual choice, but access can be tight. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot out front may work, with permission. Parking needs planning, and all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ. We will check the space, access and power with you before the day, so there are no surprises on arrival.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
