Questions from Palestine hosts

How long does the whole thing take?

Figure an hour and a half on the grill. Setup happens before you eat, and the chef wipes down the cooking spot before leaving.

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.

Do I tip the chef?

If you want to. It isn't built into the price.

Can you do a block party in Palestine?

Yes, if the block is cleared for it. Large parties get a second chef and grill so everybody eats around the same time.

What do you need from me?

A flat outdoor spot, tables, chairs, plates and forks. The chef handles the cooking end completely.

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.
