About our care home hog roast in Hattingley
Pork can be carved thinly and served on plates with potatoes and apple sauce, rather than in rolls if that’s easier. Texture-modified meals should come from the home’s own kitchen. Whether it is garden fêtes and days for relatives, we can cook new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and thinly carved roast pork.
Rural care homes near Hattingley can feel a long way from the bustle of town, so a hog roast day is a big event. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
