The process
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in West Liss are dark by about 4:00pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
