Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
