Planners, venues and businesses
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Cliffe
How far is Cliffe from London?
About 26 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is Cliffe too small for live paella?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Courtyards and terraces frequently work, if the building allows it.
Do you come to Cliffe?
Yes, we do. We cook at events in Cliffe and across Medway. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Can you feed everyone quickly?
We can. We plan pans and serving points so service is fast.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Do you cook inside?
Normally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.
Before you choose a spot
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. Here’s what we look for:
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
