Step by step

We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. After-work summer parties in Cuddesdon have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

How to prepare

  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Name one person we can ask on the day

For planners, venues and organisers

Events in public spaces, like parks, typically need permission. We’ll provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Should I cook it myself?

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

Planning for every diet

We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:

  • Provide shade and seats outdoors
  • Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
  • Ask staff about diets in advance
  • Confirm live cooking with facilities

Staff can circulate with canapés or bowls, so guests can network while they eat.

Canapé tapas for receptions and launches.
