Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us numbers for the alternatives
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Count anyone who does not eat pork
- Plates are easier for older guests than rolls
We clear away discreetly once everyone has eaten.
Rotisserie chicken is a good alternative for those who don’t eat pork.
