The process

We get there well before serving, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Guests typically gather round to watch while it cooks. In Gardeners Green, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; 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 send any documents your venue needs.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. Fast service, then we clear away.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Give us a contact for the day
