MENU: Pre Dinner Nibbles Details
For functions up to 40 heads 1 caterer is present and is unable to leave
the kitchen area due to safety and health reasons. In this case we are able to place the platters
onto a serving bench or table next to the kitchen. Guests can either help themselves to the food or
the host can put a couple of platters around where the guests are situated. If you are unsure by
all means please ring and enquire.
For functions over 40 heads 2 or more caterers are present. One in the kitchen cooking
and one serving the guests.
We supply the platters, serviettes, sauces etc so that we can offer your guests the nibbles you
have selected without them having to leave their group of friends. We then clean up
and then start serving the main meal in about ½ an hour.
What do you, the Customer, need to supply? We only need a domestic
kitchen to work from as all our food is pre-cooked at our kitchen and only needs reheating. Your
kitchen needs to be clean and clear of all nick knacks, books, photos, kettle etc. We cannot share
kitchens due to safety and health, for the time we are at your function the kitchen needs to be
ours alone. If you do not have a suitable kitchen please enquire as we can bring a portable kitchen
at added cost. If you’re unsure please enquire! We also need clear and easy access and to park
close due to the amount of boxes to bring in out.
Hints and Tips
This is a great menu for special occasions. Allow enough room for us on the day, a poorly
organized function can sour a happy occasion. Place your drinks, bar and tea and coffee away from
the kitchen. A lot of people want to wash their glasses and to get a glass of water so often it is
better to set up an area elsewhere eg, the laundry.
Many people add to this menu to cater for Vegetarians, Celiacs, Vegans etc which we are happy to
cook and serve on the day.
What do I do now?
If you would like to book please click on the tab below for your booking form. We process
bookings on Mondays and Thursdays then send you a confirmation email along with your invoice. We
require a 30% deposit on booking. When booking your function only an estimate of
your guests is required. No latter than 5 working days prior, usually Monday, you must ring
if you want to change your head count. If we have not heard from you we will assume that
your estimate number is your final figure. Please DO NOT RING after this time as we will
have done all our calculations, staff roster, & orders. Fresh stock can not be sent
back.
Terms, Conditions and FAQs
PAYMENT
Most customers pay once they have
confirmed their final numbers. You can do this by direct bank transfer, credit card over the phone
or drop in with cheque or cash. Keep in mind that although it can be extremely hard to estimate
numbers especially at 21st and clubs, most of the time it gets cheaper if you order
more.
SERVING TIME. It is always best to set your serving time later than
usual as people are always late and not everything goes to plan! We arrive about 30 mins prior to
serving according to the size of your function.
HOW MUCH FOOD IS THERE? Pre Dinner Nibbles have 3 baked foods and
3 deep fried foods picked by you. In rare occasions we may need to substitute a variety to the next
possible closest if we were unable to attain it.
MISCELLANEOUS
Hot Rod’s Roasts reserves the right to refuse a booking or to serve, eg rude or drunk guests.
Hot Rod’s Roasts is fully insured for public liability, takes much care but no
responsibility.

ALLERGIES
Hot Rod's Roasts food may contain products that could cause
an allergic reaction and take no responsibility in this case. Some of our food contains wheat,
eggs, nuts and milk. We have a list of many of our ingredients available but in not conclusive as
suppliers change their ingredients regularly.
PEAK PERIODS
We have a minimum of 60 heads for a served function for many dates in our peak times, we will
notify you of this on booking. If your head count drops the minimum we can charge is for 60 in this
case.
QUESTIONS?
Please feel free to contact us over any queries you may have. It is often better to write
down your queries over a couple of days and ask them in one go instead of repeatedly ringing . If
you are a school or club, nominate one person to be in charge of communications with us as we often
get several people ringing from one place.
With thanks, Rod and Anna Grenfell
