DIY paella versus live catering
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 at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

The process

After-work summer parties in Holborough have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.
