Catering for every guest
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Put out bins for general waste and recycling
- Put severe allergies to us in writing
- Measure your gate or driveway
- Ensure most people can sit to eat
Allergen information is available for every dish.
Quesadillas for younger guests.

Can I do a taco night myself?
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
