DIY taco night versus a caterer
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 be with your guests, we will do the serving.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up in the kitchen. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
Wedding Mexican catering for your wedding in Cross in Hand
A taco bar at a wedding feels relaxed and generous. Guests build their own plates from warm tortillas, fillings, salsas and toppings, and the queue turns into part of the fun. It suits engagement parties at home and parties after a register office wedding, serving tacos, evening tacos and quesadillas.
Near Cross in Hand, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. That is where a food truck comes into its own: no venue kitchen needed, just level, firm ground and a way in. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Everything is prepared fresh for your wedding and served from our food truck or trailer, so guests get it at its best.
