Care home fish and chips in Crook Log, cooked to order
Some residents need texture-modified food, which should come from the home’s own kitchen and care team, so everyone can share the occasion safely. Whether it is care home summer fairs and fish and chip Fridays, we can cook haddock and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips.
In Crook Log, care homes normally have limited parking, so we plan a spot that keeps emergency access clear. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
