What happens on the day

When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That’s what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. Your guests will smell it before they see it. In Cassington, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:30pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking

DIY paella versus live catering

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

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.

Paella compared with other options

A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

Why book with us

  • Waiting staff and crockery on request
  • We cover Cassington and the whole of Oxfordshire
  • Fast service from the pan
  • No hidden extras in your quote

For planners, venues and organisers
