Care home hog roast in Cookham, carved to order
Pork can be carved thinly and served on plates with potatoes and apple sauce, rather than in rolls if that is easier. Residents on modified diets should have meals prepared by your kitchen. Whether it is care home summer fairs and day centre lunches, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, roast potatoes and new potatoes for your residents.
Smaller homes around Cookham may only have a modest garden, so send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly whether the roaster fits. Our chef carves in front of your residents, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
