Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Halal is not offered
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
We get to base first thing, so the roast is ready by lunch.
Lamb or chicken gives the crew a choice.
