Working with your venue
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

What else we do in Ashmansworth
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Why choose corporate paella catering in Ashmansworth?
It feeds plenty of people quickly, which matters when time is tight.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

What you get with us
- Real theatre, not just catering
- Crockery and waiting staff if you need them
- Drinks service on request
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu
