Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
- Count residents who need an alternative
- Halal isn’t offered
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
The roaster stays clear of busy paths and windows.
Roast or new potatoes and apple sauce make it a full meal.
For planners, venues and organisers
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
What we serve, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some residents will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Menu choices and extras
- The journey to the venue
- The number of people
- Season and day of the week
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Any venue rules
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs or allergies
