About the menu
Loaded nachos

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.
Some hosts like to do it themselves. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.

Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. Set-up and pack-down times are agreed with you and the venue. Evening events in Tisman's Common have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; beyond that, ask the organiser how the site will be lit.
