Step by step

- We check the parking spot and send a price.
- We plan portions and dietary needs with the home.
- On the day we set up and fry fresh, serving at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, we pack up quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Keep space clear for residents at the hatch
