Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
