We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. By late September, sunset near Hunny Hill is about 7:10pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Think about shelter for your crew
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
