Our caterer checklist

Catering for every guest

We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Give us diet totals and allergy details
  • Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
  • Share the timings for food
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers

If timings change on the day, tell us and we will adapt.

Crockery and staff can be added.

How the day works

The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. December events in Goose Hill are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  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. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Let us know the timings for the day

DIY paella versus live catering

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

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.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

For catering that’s part of the event, live paella stands out. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We’ll send you a quote.
