How our Mexican street food works in Mount Pleasant
One Mexican trader covers several diets: there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas. That helps organisers balance the line-up. On the menu are burritos, loaded nachos and vegan tacos, and it is a good fit for outdoor screenings and community days.
Rural events near Mount Pleasant can be a long way from food outlets, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. Every guest is catered for, vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free included, and we give allergen information for every dish.

DIY taco night or 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.
If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: see how many tacos per person. Keep tortillas warm in a covered basket, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
