About our corporate paella catering in East Garston Woodlands

Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. For client and customer events and charity and fundraising events, we will put together a menu of vegan and vegetarian paella, canapé tapas and paella lunches.

An away day near East Garston Woodlands is a good fit for live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated, and served the moment it is ready.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
