DIY taco night versus a caterer

A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.

If you do it yourself, work out quantities first: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.

Questions to ask before you book

The process

We arrive in good time before service, then set up and prepare everything. Guests come up to order when service opens. Summer events in South Chingford have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, the pitch needs lighting.

  1. First, we check the dates.
  2. We agree what we’ll serve and where.
  3. We send the paperwork your event asks for.
  4. We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
  5. We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.

Preparing for the day

  • Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
  • Tell us what power and water the site has
  • Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat

Crew sandwiches are easy but dull. A hot burrito or taco bowl keeps crew going. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

  • A quote that sets out what’s included
  • We cover South Chingford and the whole of Greater London
  • Allergen information for everything we serve

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:

  • Ask traders about packaging and waste
  • Feed crew and volunteers at set times
  • Check allergen information is on display
  • Share vehicle access times with traders

Crew meals are served at set times.

Nachos for groups.
