Questions from Heathfield

Can you cook at venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Is Heathfield close to London?

About 40 miles from central London.

Is the paella gluten-free?

We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.

What paperwork do you have?

Tell us what your venue or facilities team needs, and we will provide it.

Do you work in winter?

With the right covered space, yes. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

How does payment work for businesses?

We’ll explain booking and payment when you enquire.

Is it really cooked live?

It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.

Do you cater in Heathfield?

Yes, we do. Heathfield is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

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 enjoy the party, let us cook.

Why choose live paella in Heathfield?

For catering that’s part of the event, live paella is a strong choice. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll put together a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can be a feast.
