Tongwell questions

We start by setting up the barbecue and a serving table where we agreed. Then it is a case of cooking and serving for as long as we have agreed. Sunset in Tongwell is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so an early-evening barbecue is usually in daylight.

- You get a suggested menu and a price.
- We set up the grill before food time.
- Hot food is served through the agreed time.
