- A short walk from the party

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
