46 Catering Arrangements re-allocated to someone on the ‘stand by’ list. Those enquiring about the availability of cancelled places should email the Fellows Steward (or telephone the kitchen). All arrangements of this kind must be made through these channels and not between individuals. 8.7 BOOKING OF THE DINING ROOM, HUDDLESTON ROOM AND OKINAGA ROOM FOR PRIVATE FUNCTIONS Requests for the use of these facilities for private functions, which have been approved by the Senior Tutor and/or the Bursar, should be made to the Housekeeper. Any catering arrangements should be made with the Catering/Chef Manager and not with the College Office staff. Members will be charged the actual cost of entertaining plus a fee for use of the room. Where clashes occur priority will be given to College academic events. 8.8 SPECIAL DIETARY REQUIREMENTS The College will seek to respond to the needs of members with special dietary requirements. Vegetarian options are routinely available. Other special dietary requirements should be discussed in the first instance with the Catering/Chef Manager, who will try to prepare appropriate meals if this can reasonably be arranged, though the College cannot guarantee to fulfil all individual requests. The College should be informed if a member has a serious food allergy; this should be discussed immediately on arrival with the member’s Tutor and with the Catering/Chef Manager, who will be able to advise on the ingredients and labelling of College meals. Please note: Only food purchased from the College should be consumed in the Dining Hall. Plated food should not be removed from the Dining Hall for consumption elsewhere. 8.9 DRESS CODE AND CUSTOMS FOR MEALS 8.9.1 Dress Formality in dress is welcomed at dinner each day and at Sunday Lunch. Members are asked to note the various dress requirements associated with the different categories of event (see 8.10). Where the notes indicate ‘formal’ dress, this is to be interpreted as a jacket and tie or lounge suit for men, and the equivalent level of formality for women. Where ‘formal evening wear’ is indicated, this means ‘black tie’ for men and evening dress for women. Please note that it is the custom of the Fellowship to dress in formal evening wear when new Fellows or Visiting Scholars are being inaugurated. These ceremonies take place at a number of points during the year in addition to the Inaugural Ceremony, and are held in the College Chapel prior to a formal dinner. All members of the
Catering Arrangements 47 College are warmly encouraged to attend these ceremonies, which are advertised on the College Notice Board. The fact that Fellows on these occasions will be dressed in formal evening wear for the subsequent dinner does not affect the dress requirement for other members at the dinner. Please see the notes on individual categories of meal regarding the wearing of academic gowns (sometimes festal ‘Scarlet’, see 2.5) on particular occasions. Members in need of advice about matters of dress for dining should contact either the Senior Tutor or the Steward. 8.9.2 Customs Members are asked to note the various customs associated with the different categories of event (see 8.10). On formal occasions, the CR bell is sounded before the meal, and diners follow the Master, or presiding Fellow, into the Hall following the invitation given by the Fellows’ Steward. The attention of members is particularly drawn to the requirement that, at College Guest Nights and other formal dinners, there is a formal end to the meal and diners should not leave the Hall during the meal without the permission of the Master or presiding Fellow (see 8.10.4). Smoking and photography are never permitted in the Dining Hall. Mobile phones should be switched off before entering the Dining Hall. The CR is used for coffee and port after dinner on the evenings of College Guest Nights and other formal dinners. 8.10 CATEGORIES OF MEAL The College offers ten categories of meal. These are (in reverse order of formality): (a) Regular meals: breakfast/lunch/dinner (b) Sunday Lunch (c) Formal Hall (d) Sports Dinner (e) College Guest Nights (f) Christmas Dinner (g) Supervisors’ Dinners (h) Inaugural and Matriculation; Beginning of Year; Graduands’ Dinners (i) St Edmund’s Feast (j) Norfolk Commemoration. Each category of meal has its own distinctive character, and arrangements for dress, customs, guest entitlement, and booking vary.
