FAQs for Boughton Green
Is Boughton Green too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you do Christmas parties?
With the right covered space, yes. Hot paella in winter is popular.
Can you cook indoors?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Do you do starters?
Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Is it really cooked live?
It is. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.
Can you provide dessert?
Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We will confirm with facilities.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Food vans can create long queues. Paella pans serve many people quickly. Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Everything is confirmed in writing.
