A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some crew will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
What happens on the day
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Late-September shoots near Ruislip Gardens lose the light at about 7:05pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.
