Eastchurch questions
Do you come out to small places like Eastchurch?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Eastchurch close to London?
Roughly 42 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria can be added, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
What paperwork do you have?
Send us the venue’s requirements and we’ll respond.
Do you cater for young children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, on request. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables are available.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
Corporate paella catering in Eastchurch, cooked live
A cooking station gets people mixing, which is the point of a team event. We cook Spanish desserts, canapé tapas and bowl food, and we are regularly asked to cater launches and open days and team days.
For rural venues near Eastchurch, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Let us know about access and parking. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated, and served as soon as it’s ready.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. 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 be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

Is live paella right for your work event?
Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella gives staff something to talk about. Larger events usually cost less per head, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
