The process
On the day, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. For a Christmas party in Burwash, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
