Can you do dairy-free food?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll plan the menu around them.
How is the food prepared?
We slow-cook fillings ahead, then finish them and keep them hot at your event. Tortillas are warmed on site, and salsas and guacamole are made fresh.
Do you provide plates and napkins?

Typically. We need a suitable spot outside and the venue’s permission.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll suggest mild options.
Do you do parties at home?
That depends on access. If the truck or trailer cannot reach the garden, a drive or a spot nearby may work, with permission. Tell us about the space and we’ll advise.
