Fish and chip van for events for your event in Anmore
When there’s hot food, people stay longer. We are frequently asked to cater fundraisers and festivals, with haddock and chips, curry sauce and cod and chips.
Rural events near Anmore can be a long way from anywhere to eat, so fish and chips goes down well. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your event, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.
How the day works
We arrive on time, parks where we agreed. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. Summer fêtes in Anmore have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:20pm at midsummer, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:10pm, so evening trading may need lights.
