Corporate paella catering near Great Burgh
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Corporate paella catering in Great Burgh, made fresh on the day
Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. On the menu are Spanish desserts, paella lunches and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for away days and office lunches and summer staff parties.
Work events near Great Burgh might be at a farm venue, a barn or the office grounds. Live paella works in all of them. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, not reheated, and served the moment it is ready.
Planning the cooking area
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Facilities approval and any site rules
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- A safe distance from anything that could catch
