- You get a clear price.
- We set up outdoors, clear of access routes.
- Food goes out on plates.
- We leave the grounds tidy.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
