Questions from Essex hosts
Is a city backyard big enough?
If a grill and a picnic table fit, it's big enough. Level ground or concrete about ten by ten is the whole requirement.
When does the outdoor season run?
Usually April through October. Later than that, plan on a tent and dress warm.
What do you need from me?
A flat outdoor spot, tables, chairs, plates and forks. The chef handles the cooking end completely.
Can you do a graduation party in Essex?
Yes. Graduation weekends fill up early, so book as soon as you have the date.
How do I pay?
Zelle for the $50 deposit, due 72 hours before the party, and it comes off the bill. Cash or Zelle for the rest on the day. No cards.
What if it storms in Essex?
An open garage or a tent with open sides keeps things going. Lightning means we wait, or we pick a new date with you.
