Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Plan a meat, a seafood and a vegetable or vegan pan
- Count adults and children separately
- Flag any coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
A short rest after cooking helps, and that’s when we invite guests up.
Finish with churros, crema catalana or tarta de Santiago, or serve your own cake.
