Mexican street food in Allington, served fresh

Diets, allergies and planning
Mixed diets are straightforward to plan for, because options can be kept separate. A few tips:

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. Common snags are cold tortillas, uneven quantities and the host missing the party. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
How the day works
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. Evening events in Allington have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer; after that, the trading area needs lighting from the organiser or the site.
- You send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on our pitch.
- We cook to order and serve through the agreed trading hours.
- We pack away and leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
- Share the running order, including any speeches
