What to know about Thai party catering in Great Dunmow
Great Dunmow has grown a lot in recent years, with 38% of its homes built since 2000. New-build gardens are often compact, so a buffet indoors with food cooked on our station outside works best.
The nearest station, Stansted Airport, is about 5 miles away, so most guests arrive by car. Rural venues need a caterer who brings everything, and we arrive with our own gas, water containers and lighting.
Great Dunmow has plenty of larger family homes, with room for a bigger guest list at home. Larger homes mean bigger guest lists at home, so two stations work well: one for mains and one for satay and starters.
Hosting a party in Great Dunmow
Parties in and around Great Dunmow usually happen at airport hotels and offices, country estates and barn and tithe barn venues, and we adapt the set-up to the space.
We need a flat space about the size of a parking bay for the cooking station, or we cook nearby and bring the food in hot.
The drive from our kitchen is about 13 miles via the M11, A120 and B184, roughly 30 minutes, and travel is always included in your quote rather than added on later. For guests coming by train: Audley End, Newport and Stansted Mountfitchet are on the line to London Liverpool Street and Cambridge.
Build your Thai party catering menu
