Christmas party fish and chips for Salters Heath events
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Salters Heath
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons suit a chip van too, serving hot food on a chilly evening. For warehouse and depot Christmas lunches and end-of-year club parties, we can cook curry sauce, cod and chips and haddock and chips.
In a small place like Salters Heath, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
