About our care home hog roast in Duns Tew
For residents, we carve thinly and serve on plates, which is easier for many people than a roll. Texture-modified meals should come from the home’s own kitchen. Whether it’s family days with visitors and anniversaries of the home, we can cook thinly carved roast pork, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes and more.
Country homes near Duns Tew frequently have big gardens with views, perfect for residents to sit out while the hog roasts. 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.
