Your questions about corporate paella catering in Botley
Is Botley close to London?
About 55 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Could we have live paella in Raleigh Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Do you do starters?
Yes, and it is a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you provide drinks?
Yes, sangria. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan for them.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Frequently, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We will check with your facilities team.
DIY paella versus live catering
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. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
