DIY paella versus live catering
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’ll do the cooking.
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
How the day works
The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. We need a level, ventilated spot, which we agree with you beforehand. After-work summer parties in Five Oak Green have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Ensure we can park close by to unload
