Christmas hog roast for your Christmas party in Woldingham
At a Christmas fair or lights switch-on in Woldingham, a hog roast draws a queue: hot food in the hand on a cold evening. We serve roast turkey, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls, and we are regularly asked to cater festive open evenings and end-of-term celebrations.
In winter near Woldingham, we need firm ground and light, as fields are often soft. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
