Live paella or other catering?

A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Paella just needs a suitable spot. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

  • Events in East Guldeford and across East Sussex
  • Drinks service on request

What happens on the day

Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That’s how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. Your guests will smell it before they see it. After-work summer parties in East Guldeford have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.
