About our corporate paella catering in Brightling
Live paella makes lunch an activity, not just a break from it. On the menu are paella lunches, vegan and vegetarian paella and Spanish desserts, and we’re often booked for training days and conferences and team-building days.
An away day near Brightling is a good fit for live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, never made in advance and reheated, and served the moment it is ready.
