Live corporate paella catering in Chilson
How the day works
Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. After-work summer parties in Chilson have daylight until about 9:30pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level spot for the cooking area
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

How we price corporate paella catering
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Whether you need crockery
- The paellas you choose
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Distance and access to the venue
The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What we need to know
The more we know about your work event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Approximate guest numbers, including children
- Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
- Whether the venue has crockery or staff
- The date and time of the event
