The process
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your Christmas party. December in Penn Street means early darkness: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Have a level parking spot ready
