Common questions in Cheeseman's Green

How far is Cheeseman's Green from London?

About 51 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Can you cook at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

Do you cook it at the event?

Yes. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.

Will there be enough food?

We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.

Where do you cater?

We cater across London and the South East, including Kent. Find your area.

Is halal food available?

We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we will cook a separate pan.

How many different paellas?

Two or three is usual: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will help you decide the split.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Why choose live paella in Cheeseman's Green?

Buffet food sits out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.

Why us?

  • Waiting staff and crockery on request
  • Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
  • Hot food served quickly from the pan
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan

The process

When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That is how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. The smell normally draws people over. After-work summer parties in Cheeseman's Green have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  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. We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
