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 enjoy the party, let us cook.

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

Paella compared with other options

Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

Why us?

  • Real theatre, not just catering
  • Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
  • Crockery and waiting staff if you need them
  • A quote that spells everything out

About the dishes

Vegan and vegetarian pans

A real main for vegetarians and vegans, in its own pan.

Paella lunches

Two or three paellas served from the pan, quick to serve to a big team.

Catering for every guest

Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:

  • Share the timings for food
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Have water and soft drinks available
  • Add a diet question to the sign-up form

We keep the cooking area tidy and contained.

How it works

When we arrive, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so we time everything to your schedule. After-work summer parties in Hannington have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.

  1. First, we check date and venue.
  2. You pick the menu.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Getting ready for the day

  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
