What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
Rotisserie chicken
For residents who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children normally like it too.
For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
