Read How we price And What paella catering costs.
DIY paella versus live catering
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
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’ll do the cooking.
Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where we cook. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
Hornchurch Marshes is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before booking.
