What happens on the day
Serving is quick: we serve from the hatch or a serving station, so even a long queue moves. When service ends, we pack down. In South Stour, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so an outdoor taco bar in summer is generally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so guests will need light to see the fillings and toppings.
- Start with the essentials: the date, venue, headcount and diets.
- We plan the fillings and toppings with you and quote for them.
- Together we fix the spot for the taco bar and a nearby place for our vehicle.
- We set out warm tortillas, hot fillings, salsas and toppings, and guests help themselves.
- When service finishes, we clear the table and pack the vehicle.
Before we arrive
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Check the venue is happy to have a truck or trailer on site
- Tell us about narrow gates or low branches
