FAQ's
Come visit us
WHAT TYPES OF FOOD CAN YOU PROVIDE?
We have a range of our most popular street-food style dishes, such as our loaded flatbreads, pulled meats, loaded nachos, Angus burgers, but if you have a dish in mind that we can do, then we'll give it a go! We love to work with our clients to plan the menu.
HOW MANY DISHES CAN WE CHOOSE?
We recommend 2-3 dishes per service, but it does really come down to how many guests you have, how many vegans/vegetarians are attending and whether we have the correct equipment to run a smooth service. Three is usually ample to be honest!
DO YOU CATER FOR GUESTS WITH DIETARY REQUIREMENTS?
Of course we do; we feed everybody!
HOW FAR DO YOU TRAVEL?
We are based in Derby, but whether it's as far north as Manchester, as far
south as Northampton, or right on our doorstep, we either drive 'Eric' to the event or transport him on a trailer, which we have to hire. 'Eric' has certainly been far and wide...
HOW MUCH IS IT TO HIRE GGG?
We take a deposit of £200, (fully refundable), which officially holds the date in the diary...wahoo and CONGRATULATIONS! Our mains start from £10 per head, and our side dishes start from £2.50 per head, but it just depends what dishes you're after; our most popular street-food mains are £12 per head. The final payment, for the food, isn't taken until 2 weeks before the date of the event taking place, when guest numbers and dishes are finalised, and the final tweaks are put into place. Then the countdown begins...
HOW LONG DO YOU SERVE FOOD FOR?
It depends on the number of guests and mains being served, but generally speaking, our service will last from 90 minutes- 2 hours. We only take 1 booking per day, so there's no rush. If it runs over 2 hours, then it's no problem at all; there are no additional fees for a longer service, but we're realistic in how long we need to serve guests. We cook food fresh to order, from the hatch, and try to achieve a chilled out, relaxed service, giving the guests the chance to order their food when they're ready to eat, rather than being dictated to with a specific time they must eat!
DO YOU NEED ACCESS TO POWER?
Yes we do! Ideally, we require access to a 16amp or 32 amp socket, as our lovely 'Eric' does use a lot of power when all of our equipment is running, but we can run off domestic sockets, however we require access to two separate, independent sockets (not just a double socket).
"CAN YOU DO CHIPS?"
Noooooooooo!! I hate the smell of grease and how it lingers; I like to keep 'Eric' as clean and fresh as possible, so we don't provide fried options. We are Gorgeous Gourmet Grub, so we like to aim for the gourmet side of street-food.
CAN WE TRY YOUR FOOD BEFORE OUR EVENT?
If you are booking us for a wedding, then the answer is YES!! Once you have paid the deposit, and you are officially booked in the GGG diary, then we'll arrange a tasting session with you. I absolutely love meeting our wedding couples for a taster session, which we hold at our house between the months of March and June. We invite our couples over for a taste of our most popular dishes and a cheeky glass of something cold; we get to know you a little better and gain an insight into your big day, and make decisions on your final menu choices. It's a lovely evening...
