Questions from Wallington
Could you cook in Carshalton Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Wallington?
Wallington has its own station: Wallington station.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
About our film set catering in Wallington
Some locations near Wallington are a long way from food, so hot food at base matters. We are often asked to cater extended shoot days and crew appreciation lunches, with new potatoes, salads and spit-roast lamb.
London locations around Wallington can have tight access, so send us the route and restrictions. The carving happens right in front of your crew, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.
