Mexican street food in Knatts Valley, served fresh
We trade at festivals, fairs, markets, school fairs and community events in and around Knatts Valley. It works well for open-air performances and music and food festivals, serving burritos, quesadillas and tacos.
Near Knatts Valley, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hot-food truck is a big help. We serve from the hatch of our truck or trailer, or from a serving station, and we plan service so the queue keeps moving.
Should I do it myself?
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Where the truck can go in Knatts Valley
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Trader information and site rules
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- Clearance from tents and gazebos
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise before you book.
How it works
When we arrive, we park the truck or trailer in the agreed spot and set up. Service starts at the time we have agreed, so everything runs to your schedule. At midsummer, events in Knatts Valley stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details, dates and pitch information.
- We send our menu, pitch requirements and the documents you ask traders for.
- On the day, we arrive in the set-up window and get ready to trade.
- We serve from the hatch through the trading times you set.
- At the close, we clear our pitch.
Before we arrive
- Find out what power and water are available
- Have a marquee or gazebo ready in case of rain
- Share the running order, including any speeches
