DIY paella versus live catering

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.

For event organisers in Burlow

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Tell us how long you have for food.

Planning for every diet

With a little notice, every diet is easy. We suggest:

  • Collect dietary needs when people sign up
  • Share the timings for food
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
  • Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol

We arrive at the agreed time and follow your site rules.

The process

Here’s how the day generally runs: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, your guests watch the rice cook, and it’s served hot from the pan when you are ready to eat.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
