How our corporate paella catering works in Enfield Lock

A cooking station gets people mixing, which is the point of a team event. We’re frequently asked to cater christmas parties and customer events, with canapé tapas, Spanish desserts and paella lunches.

London work events in Enfield Lock frequently run to a tight lunch break, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Let us know about access and loading. The paella is served straight from the pan, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once it’s ready.

How we price corporate paella catering

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • How long we’re needed on site
  • The paellas you choose
  • Guest numbers
  • Travel, parking and access

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • Which courses you have in mind
  • A picture of where we’d cook

The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Give us the details of your work event, and we will suggest paellas and extras to suit.

Our caterer checklist

Working with your venue

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Tell us how long you have for food.

Should I cook it myself?

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’ll do the cooking.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Step by step

When we arrive, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. December events in Enfield Lock are in the dark from about 3:50pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Check the venue allows live cooking
