Corporate paella catering for your work event in East Street
A cooking station gets people mixing, which is the point of a team event. We’re frequently asked to cater open days and launches and charity and fundraising events, serving paella lunches, canapé tapas and vegan and vegetarian paella.
At country venues around East Street, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Tell us about access. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, not reheated, and served the moment it is ready.
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.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
