Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Battle? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:

  • Tell us how long the food break is
  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
  • Ask staff about diets in advance
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events

We serve at the agreed time, lunchtime or evening.

Canapés for drinks receptions.

Step by step

When we arrive, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. December events in Battle are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
  2. We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Share the running order, including any speeches

Should I cook it myself?

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. 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.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Why book with us

  • Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests
  • Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
  • We cover Battle and the whole of East Sussex
  • Everything cooked fresh at your event

  • Cooked live in giant pans at your event
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal options
  • Paella, tapas, canapés and desserts
  • Sangria, bar staff, crockery and waiting staff
