How to compare caterers

How the day works

A typical event goes like this: we arrive, set up and start cooking, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. For a Christmas party in Buxted, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area
  • Share the running order, including any speeches

We serve at the agreed time, whether that’s a lunch break or an evening party.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

If you want catering that becomes part of the event, live paella is a strong choice. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.

Should I cook it myself?

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
