Care home fish and chips in Avery Hill, cooked to order
Residents on soft or texture-modified diets need special care, which the home’s own team prepares or advises on. Typical bookings include friday fish and chip treats and residents’ family gatherings, with gravy, cod and chips and mushy peas.
For a care home in Avery Hill, a short stay in the car park works well, as agreed with the manager. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

How the day works
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your residents can wander over to the hatch once service starts. For a summer visit in Avery Hill, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime visit is better.

- We agree portion sizes and any diets with your kitchen or care team.
