Your questions about corporate paella catering in East Chiltington
Is East Chiltington close to London?
About 40 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like East Chiltington?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Do you work in winter?
Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. December dates go fast.
Can you provide dessert?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
Is the paella gluten-free?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
What space do you need to cook?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Can we pay by invoice?
Let us know your company’s process, and we’ll talk you through it.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan for them.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
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 keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
What we need at the venue
We will be honest if a space will not work. What matters most:
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
- Somewhere close to park and unload
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
