About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Step by step
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Late-September shoots near Old Oak Common lose the light at about 7:05pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
