Which station should guests use for Friday Hill?
The closest is Chingford station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.
Can you cater for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.
How much space do you need?
Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Typically we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.
Do you do Christmas parties?
Yes, if there’s a covered, ventilated spot. Book early for December.
What happens if it rains?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

DIY paella versus live catering
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
