Mexican street food in Thong, served fresh
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, which keeps the queue moving at busy times. On the menu are loaded nachos, vegan tacos and burritos, and it’s a good fit for sports clubs and race days and food and music festivals.
At a fête or field event near Thong, a truck or trailer brings hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground, the gate and access. Food and drinks can be booked together or separately, so one caterer can cover more of the day.
Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: vehicle access, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work to it.
For big numbers, we plan service to keep queues short, so everyone is served promptly. Let us know how long the break is.

DIY taco night or a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. With a caterer, you get the food and drinks without the work.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
Comparing your options
Hot-cabinet food lacks appeal. Our food is made to order. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
Why book with us
- Every guest catered for, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan included
- Access, space and power checked in advance
- Quoted for your event
- Allergen-aware menus
Step by step
We get there well before you want to serve, set up the truck or trailer and get everything ready. Guests come up to order when service opens. A December market in Thong loses the light at about 3:50pm, so site lighting matters for traders and visitors alike. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:20pm.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we’ll serve and where.
- We send the paperwork your event asks for.
- We are ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Getting ready for the day
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Tell us what power and water the site has
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

If crew or volunteer meals are booked, they’re served at the agreed times.
