Catered or do it yourself?

The process
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Lunchtime bookings in Chilmington Green are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events.
