With spring here and the sunnier days returning to the calendar, the Chef and Griddle team is raring to go with outdoor catering. It might be something that is often missed with our service as not everyone immediately recognises that we can adapt our dining for both indoor and outdoor services, but just about any menu is adaptable under the right conditions. Of course, we also have some menus that are specifically curated with outdoor dining in mind, and it is these menus and services that we think are going to best serve your events this spring and summer.
Our hog roast signature is a dish that is primed for either outdoor or indoor dining, although its cooking process always tends to look best out in the elements where it traditionally belongs. But for spring we’d like to recommend our more seasonally appropriate menus, such as our grazing tables and al fresco dining platters. These are menus made with the weather in mind, because after all, the conditions of any event can alter how guests might want to dine. Our grazing tables, for example, are the perfect light option for those warmer days where guests might not want to be stodged down with a heavier roast meal. They are a perfect balance of vibrancy and colour in your catering as our team set up an impressive looking display of foods for guests to peruse at their leisure. This could be great reds with our Italian meats, popping all the more against our bright leafy greens, oils, and cheeses. It’s the kind of presentation that looks great for outdoor events and always stops guests in their tracks.
Our al fresco menu is also always perfect on a spring day, and so too is our gourmet barbecue of course, which gives guests all their favourites from the British barbecue with our own Chef and Griddle gourmet twists. Use the season to your advantage; talk to your Chef and Griddle team for the best way to serve your outdoor events this spring!
