The process
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. It gets dark in Wittensford by about 4:00pm at Christmas; park the van where there’s good light.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Have a level parking spot ready
