Working with your venue
Hosting a party at home? Send a photo of the space and tell us about parking, and we will let you know if live paella is a good fit.
For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so guests are fed quickly. Tell us how long you have for food.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella is served hot as soon as it’s ready. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
