Film set catering in Catmore, carved to order
There are options for crew who do not eat pork, and we provide allergen information for every dish. Whether it’s wrap days and commercials and music videos, we can cook rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls for your crew.
For a shoot in a place like Catmore, tracks and soft ground need checking before the day. The hog is roasted on site at your shoot, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your crew.
