How the day works
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. In Swaile's Green, a midsummer event stays light until about 9:15pm, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:00pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
