Diets, allergies and planning
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Share the timings for food
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
We keep the cooking area tidy and contained.

Is live paella right for your work event?
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella pans serve many people quickly. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
