Paella compared with other options
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella is served fast from the pan. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. Your quote spells it all out.
What you get with us
- Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
- Cooking your guests will gather round to watch
- A clear, itemised quote
- Every diet catered for, pan by pan
Before you choose a spot
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so the cooking area needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Planning a team event in Great Kimble
Great Kimble is about 5 miles south of Aylesbury, in Buckinghamshire.

Great Kimble is one of 263 places in Buckinghamshire we cover. We cook right across the region, from Great Kimble to Oxford (about 18 miles away).

Should I cook it myself?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
