DIY paella versus live catering
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Planning the cooking area
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
