How our care home hog roast works in Maida Vale
We plan the day with your manager and kitchen team: where the roaster goes, who is eating and how food is served. We serve new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and thinly carved roast pork, and we are regularly asked to cater day centre get-togethers and milestone days for the home.
