Mexican catering in EC2A: what to expect
Fillings are slow-cooked in advance and kept hot on site, and the salsas and guacamole are freshly made. We warm the tortillas as each order goes out. On the menu are fresh salsas and guacamole, tacos and burritos, and it suits milestone birthdays and family celebrations.

Mexican catering across EC2A: what to know
There are 6 towns and 0 villages and hamlets in EC2A, so whether your event is in Barbican Estate, Bishopsgate and Finsbury or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level, firm spot, a way in and agreed timings.
Barbican Estate: Around Barbican Estate, historic houses include Mansion House (0.5 miles south-east) and Dr Johnson's House (0.6 miles south-west). Venues like these often limit where vehicles can go, so ask about access before booking one. Thinking of an event in Barbican Conservatory? Public parks typically need the landowner’s permission for a food truck, so check first. Around midsummer it stays light in Barbican Estate until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting around the truck and the queue.
