Hog Roast Halstead were delighted to be asked to cater at a very special christening party at Petersfield Farmhouse in Gosfield for 80 guests; 25 of which would be children and hence would require some different savoury options, fabulous desserts and some specific dietary requirements.
For this type of event, Hog Roast Halstead has a selection of six menus ranging from informal, Hog in a Roll food to more formal sit-down catering and the client wanted the alfresco hog roast on real crockery but with a few additions for the kids, veggie options for four guests and for us to serve at around 12.30. There are many good caterers for this type of event but one of the things that makes Hog Roast Halsted stand out is not only the professional service and the very high-quality food, but also the flexibility and adaptability that we have to be able to tailor our menus for the clients’ requirements. This was no exception and we always try to fulfil the client’s expectation and requirements and wherever possible surpass them; we always welcome feedback and regularly receive very complimentary comments from young and old alike.
No two events are alike and we pride ourselves on a very personal approach to every event, and alongside the requirements above, the client also asked us to include sausages for the kids, some gluten free rolls and to have two choices for dessert; strawberry and passion fruit vacherin and profiteroles – wow, this was going to be a great party!
We started serving when the guests were ready and as they had already got a whiff of the delicious aromas of the food that we were preparing, they were certainly ready for their food! Needless to say, the diners were excited and delighted at the food we had to offer with very complimentary feedback on the quality– especially from the roasts, sausages and the desserts which went down a treat.
