Mexican catering for Harcourt Hill events
Mexican catering in Harcourt Hill, from our truck or trailer
Few things get guests chatting like a build-your-own taco bar. Guests fill their own tortillas from the fillings, salsas and toppings, so each plate is exactly how they like it. At family celebrations and staff parties and office lunches, we will put together a menu of fresh salsas and guacamole, burrito bowls and quesadillas and more.
Somewhere like Harcourt Hill, a field or garden is often the setting. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Access, space and power are agreed with you beforehand, so there are no surprises on arrival.

How the day works
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, planned around your event. A December event in Harcourt Hill will be in the dark from about 3:55pm, so choose a spot where guests can see what they’re ordering. In late June, by contrast, daylight lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Share the date, the venue and how many are coming.
- Together we plan a menu around your guests’ diets.
- We check the route in and where the truck or trailer will stand.
- Food is served from the hatch or a taco-bar table.
- We clear our serving area when everyone is fed.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the truck or trailer

The menu, item by item

These are the factors that matter most:
- The number of people
- Serving staff

Should I do it myself?
