Your questions about corporate paella catering in Hale Green

How far is Hale Green from London?

About 43 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you cater in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Do you do vegan paella?

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

How much paella per person?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.

Can you cater a winter event?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

Do you take everything away?

Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.

Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?

That’s one of paella’s strengths. Tell us how long the break is and we will plan service around it.

Can you cook at our office?

Often, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We will check with your facilities team.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

Should I cook it myself?

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.

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. 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 will do the cooking.

The process

Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. In Hale Green, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
