Care home fish and chips for Moulsecoomb events
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your residents instead.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
