How the day works

Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. December in Wendover Dean means early darkness: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

A gazebo or covered doorway near the hatch helps on a wet night.
