Live corporate paella catering in Brook
Corporate paella catering for your work event in Brook
Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. For company summer parties and product launches and open days, we can cook paella lunches, canapé tapas and bowl food.
Team away days in the countryside around Brook suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
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.
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 for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you send documents to our venue?
Let us know what’s required, and we will send what you need.
Do you work in winter?
