DIY taco night versus a caterer
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Mexican party catering for your party in Shillinglee
You get to be a guest at your own party: no shopping, no cooking and no washing up of pans. The food is our job. Popular choices include guacamole and salsas, tacos and burritos, which works well for street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers and graduation and exam-results parties.
