  • Grab attention through social media

Social media is the best choice when it comes to interacting with customers on a large scale. Through this, you can get the attention of the clients anytime and anywhere you want.

        Food Business Notification

        In the Food Act 2021, Under Section 86

        • For the food businesses, it is imperative to complete and submit the food business notification to the local council even before they start the business. They need to tell at which place they are operating the business.
        • Along with that, provide information about where the food processing will occur and where all the food equipment is stored.
        • If the businesses which will operate at festivals, fairs, or markets need to submit the temporary food business notification to the council.

        According to Food Safety Standards, ‘When the food is not suitable?’

          Best Burger: How are gourmet burgers different from classic burgers?

          Loading

          Are you looking to have a feast for taste buds? Don’t you think it’s even better when everything market-fresh and locally produced food items are included? Make your first step to our Food Truck Point Cook to give yourself a ride to the food heaven. Meat Mechanics food menu speaks for itself and our food quality is what makes people put their trust in our service for the Food Truck Catering Melbourne.

          Now! One thing which we have seen is, people love to have burgers! However, not all of them are created equal. There is no denying the fact that a burger of $2 will not taste as good as a $5 or $12 burger. Well! Here it is not just about the price point but the way of preparing a burger. Indeed, the way a burger is prepared will completely change the way it taste.

          From which place you are getting your burger from

          One of the most notable differences is where you are getting the burger from. There is no doubt that customers will prefer that place which offers speedy food service and is economical.

          Choosing that place is important because it specializes in burgers. For example, You see on the menu Cheese Burger and when you have the first bite, it should actually taste ‘Cheesy’. At Meat Mechanics, our experienced chef makes the most cheesy burger which has grass-fed beef, tomato ketchup, Mc clure’s pickles, and mustard saute onion. We know it’s all about the attention and detail which make the burger stand apart from the rest.

          Type of patty used

          What’s that one key ingredient of the burger? Answer: Burger patty. For example, you ordered a chicken burger but the patty inside is not fresh, then it is actually like you are wasting your money. At our food truck, we serve chicken burgers with fresh patties & this is what a gourmet burger is all about. No matter what it is, the quality and freshness of food are important.

          The flavour of the patty

          Do you know what can make the burger taste the worst? Whether it is under-season or over-season. No matter what type & quality of protein is being used it is important that the best flavors are added to it.

          Our pulled pork burger is made with hickory-smoked pork, Asian coleslaw, jalapenos, and everyone’s favorite cheese.

          Method of cooking the burger

          Burgers can be broiled, smoked, baked, grilled, and fried. Moreover, they can be cooked anywhere but the burger taste mustn’t be affected. In addition, in this quality beef is added.

          Our in-house smoked portobello mushroom burger contains fire-roasted peppers, cheese, saute onions, and chimichurri. It is a must-try burger option at Meat Mechanics.

          Toppings on the burger

          It is easy to find a burger with tomato, cheese, and lettuce. When you get the gourmet burger it is more than that and the taste shows that. In gourmet burgers, you will have toppings like sauteed mushrooms, grilled onions, and freshly sliced avocado.

          Our cheesesteak burger is the perfect example of that which contains pulled brisket smoked for 14 hours and then sauteed onion & capsicum are added.

          Taste the difference

          Be it special toppings or innovative cooking methods, we have everything in store for you. At Meat Mechanics, it is all about the taste and combinations which will make you drool over the burgers. Try it on your own to get the taste of, ‘How experienced chefs make tasty burgers?’.

                  How are food trucks, the unique solution to wedding catering needs?

                  The food trucks offer people creative dishes. Earlier it was observed that the people at the wedding were only offered with the boring and fried chicken. But the food trucks are known to be the creative solution to the uniqueness in the chicken.

                  How much cost is to be incurred for taking the services of the food truck?

                  The total cost of taking the services from the food truck can be different from one company to another. Sp for getting hired with the best food truck caterer, it is essential that you are comparing the food truck on the relevant grounds. This means you should be comparing applause to apples and not apples to oranges.

                  So let us get to know some of the Pros and the Cons of the food truck:

                  PROS

                  • Great Experience

                  This is the obvious benefit of hiring a food truck. This gives the wedding attendants a unique experience and the wedding does not only become memorable for you but them as well.

                  • Alternative to the traditional chicken

                  If you want to host your wedding at such a place that is beautiful and matches all your dream credentials but is lacking with the traditional chicken. Then the food truck is the best solution in that regard.

                  CONS

                  It is relevant to mention here that you will only encounter the cons if you are not taking the services from the right service provider:

                  • Prolonged hours of waiting

                  As the food trucks are restricted in space and are supposed to cater to the needs of a huge group of people, they may keep some of the guests waiting. They will be required to prepare the food in batches. So sometimes, one food truck is not enough and you may need to take the services of more than one food truck.

                  • Are you hiring them for some time?

                  If you are hiking the food truck for some time, the ones who arrive late at the venue will miss out on the benefits of the food truck. So they might get hurt as they did not get a chance to get served with the food truck services.
