Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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 crew instead.
About the food
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Agree the waste plan with locations
- Share the base location and route
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Ensure we can reach locations on the day
Lunch is planned around the call sheet, and a contact keeps us updated.
Plan bins at the unit base.
