How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. Winter shoots near Fyfield chase the light, which goes at about 4:00pm in December, so lunch at base is often in daylight but a wrap meal isn’t.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- You get an access check and a quote.
- We arrange the van’s spot at the unit base with locations.
- We cook to order through the crew’s lunch break.
- We pack up straight after service and leave the base tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Give us a contact for the day
