How it works
You do not need to do much on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your shoot. The frying and serving are down to us. On a winter shoot near Leagreen, the light goes by about 4:05pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
