Should I do it myself?
Weighing up a DIY taco night against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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.
Mexican street food for your event in Old Alresford
A taco stall covers many diets at once: we serve vegan and vegetarian fillings and corn tortillas for gluten-free visitors. That helps organisers balance the line-up. It works well for fundraisers and fêtes and open-air performances, serving vegan tacos, quesadillas and burritos.
Rural events near Old Alresford can be a long way from food outlets, so a hot-food truck is a big help. You can book food, drinks or both, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
