Consultancy
Go the whole ‘hog’
Not even vegans can deny that everything tastes better with butter, yet more people are choosing plant based diets every day.
And with dietary needs on the rise, it’s no longer enough to offer a veggie option. Guests rely on you to nourish them when they’re away from home and not be an after thought.
My consultancy is tailored to your venue. No rigid templates, just a smarter, more inclusive version of what you already do. The goal? Happier guests, increased profits, and a dining experience that makes everyone feel welcome.
With my help, you’ll learn how to better nourish those with dietary requirements, because this isn’t just about one meal, it’s about making every guest feel cared for while they’re staying with you.
