About the food
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

What happens on the day
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your residents, and we agree exactly where before the day. In summer, New Denham has daylight until about 9:25pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- The home tells us the date, numbers for residents, staff and visitors, and the best time to serve.
- You get an access check and a clear quote.
- We agree portion sizes and any diets with your kitchen or care team.
- We park up and cook to order at mealtime.
- Afterwards, we pack up quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Plan where the queue will stand

Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Choose a spot away from ambulance routes
- Pick a time that suits the home’s day
- Plan how food reaches residents indoors
- Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
Residents in their rooms get food on a covered tray straight away.
Old seaside postcards and photos spark conversation.
