What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Summer fêtes in Lower Cadsden have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:25pm at midsummer, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Tell us when you want to eat
