Book corporate paella catering in Boughton Aluph

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.

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • Guest numbers
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • How many courses
  • Timings and hours

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
