How the day works

A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it’s served hot from the pan when you’re ready to eat. For a Christmas party in Fulking, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Common questions in Fulking

Can you cook at venues in the South Downs National Park?

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

What about events near the coast?

Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Wind is the main issue on the coast, so we plan shelter.

Can we add tapas or canapés?

Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

What paperwork do you have?

Ask facilities for their list and pass it on and we’ll respond.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.

What if the weather’s bad?

A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will talk it through before the day.

Where do you cater?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Fulking.

Do you do Christmas parties?

Yes, if there’s a covered, ventilated spot. Book early for December.
