Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Hog roasts are a Christmas favourite, but it’s pork only. A van offers fish, sausages and pies. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
