How our care home fish and chips works in Netherton
Smaller portions and plates with cutlery suit many residents. We’re often asked to cater day centres and lunch clubs and themed afternoons, with gravy, pie and chips and mushy peas.
Rural care homes near Netherton can feel a long way from the seaside, so a van visit is a big occasion. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
