Last Friday marked another thrilling chapter in the adventures of Hog Roast Barnstaple as our team hit the road to cater for a high school concert competition that was set to ignite the stage with musical talent from near and far. With bands of cellists, drummers, saxophonists, and more, the event promised a symphony of melodies to enchant an audience of 500 eager spectators.
For years, this annual event has been a showcase of musical prowess, with young virtuosos battling it out for top honours. And, this year, the organisers decided to elevate the experience by bringing in professional catering, and who better than Hog Roast Barnstaple to deliver excellence in taste and service?
As guests arrived, our team was on hand to ensure they were greeted in style. Refreshments flowed freely, accompanied by a tantalising array of canapés. From beer-battered mini fish and chips and smoked Scottish salmon to roasted halloumi and tomato crostini and mini quiche, every bite was a symphony of flavour, setting the tone for an unforgettable evening.
But the real showstopper came during intermission, as Hog Roast Barnstaple unveiled our main course spread. A traditional hog roast with all the trimmings, succulent whole-roasted free-range chickens, and grilled vegetable and halloumi skewers ensured there was something to satisfy every palate. And let’s not forget the freshly made salads, coleslaw, and buttered new potatoes that rounded out the feast.
With bellies full and spirits high, guests settled in for the evening’s final performances, eagerly awaiting the announcement of the winners. And when the moment arrived, cheers erupted as the best band of the night claimed their well-deserved trophy and a generous gift voucher to further their musical endeavours.
But the night wasn’t over just yet—there was still dessert to be had! Hog Roast Barnstaple pulled out all the stops with stunning vacherins of strawberries and passion fruit cream, alongside decadent slices of chocolate torte. It was the perfect finale to an evening filled with music, merriment, and, of course, mouth-watering indulgence.
As the final notes faded away and guests bid farewell to another memorable event, the Hog Roast Barnstaple team couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride. For us, it’s not just about serving great food—it’s about being part of moments that matter, creating memories that last a lifetime!
