Film set catering in Ledborough, carved to order
On a long shoot day near Ledborough, a hot lunch on time matters. A hog roast works well at base: it roasts through the morning and is carved fast when lunch is called. Typical bookings include unit base lunches and wrap days, serving new potatoes, spit-roast lamb and salads.
Near Ledborough, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so lunch at base matters. The hog is roasted on site at your shoot, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your crew.
