Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the party.
