Corporate paella catering in Force Green

Corporate paella catering in Force Green, cooked live

Around Force Green, office events tend to use courtyards, terraces and car parks. Facilities teams normally need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in a separate pan.

What we need at the venue

We’ll agree the cooking spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:

  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo

As a London location, Force Green is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

12 questions to ask before you book

The process

When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell generally draws people over. After-work summer parties in Force Green have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

How to prepare

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable

For event organisers in Force Green

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the garden and tell us about access, and we will let you know if live paella is a good fit.

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.

Planning for every diet

We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:

  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
  • Ask facilities what documents they need from us
  • Let us know how long people have to eat
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events

Staff can serve canapés or bowl food during a reception, so guests can network while they eat.

DIY paella versus live catering

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
