Diets, allergies and planning
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Find out what paperwork the venue needs
- Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Get facilities approval early
We serve at the agreed time, whether that’s a lunch break or an evening party.
Sangria and bar staff for drinks you provide.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
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 be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
Prices and what affects them
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Parking and unloading
- How many guests are eating
- Waiting and bar staff
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- The courses you’d like
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.

We pack down our cooking area after service. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.

We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.

We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.

Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.
