Corporate hog roast in Chinatown, carved to order
A corporate hog roast feeds a team without anyone leaving site. We roast on site in Chinatown through the morning and serve at your lunch break. Popular choices include coleslaw, rotisserie chicken and salads, and typical bookings are for team-building days and staff summer days.
In Chinatown, lunch breaks are frequently short, so we plan the roast and service around it. Let us know about access and site rules. Our chef carves in front of your staff, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Working with your venue
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
What the cooking area needs
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Someone to meet us at reception
- Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
As a London location, Chinatown is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Spit-roast lamb
- Coleslaw

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Evening staff events in Chinatown need light after sunset: about 9:20pm in June, 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December.
