Should I cook it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
- Ask facilities what documents they need from us
- Think about shade and seating
We serve at the agreed time, whether that is a lunch break or an evening party.
Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.
