How the day works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. By late September, sunset in Blacknest is around 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
