Live paella or other catering?

Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Why book with us

  • Hot food served quickly from the pan
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment
  • Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them

The process

From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. December events in Barns Green are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
