Seven Kings: your questions answered
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Seven Kings?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Can you do a hog roast in South Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
What about texture-modified diets?
Texture-modified meals should be prepared by the home’s kitchen to each resident’s plan. We will share allergen and menu details.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
