Do you come out to small places like Monks Risborough?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
What space do you need to cook?
Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a picture.
Can you provide dessert?
We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote.

Rain does not stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We’ll talk it through before the day.
