Planning the cooking area

We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. These are the things we check:

  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • Somewhere close to park and unload
  • A safe distance from anything that could catch

Hurlingham 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 in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Popular choices

  • Canapé tapas
  • Bowl food

For planners, venues and organisers

Organising a club, school or community event in Hurlingham? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

Catering for every guest

Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included. To make it work smoothly:

  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
  • Ask facilities what documents they need from us
  • Let us know how long people have to eat
  • Confirm live cooking with facilities

We arrive on time and follow your site rules.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

Step by step

A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and it’s served hot from the pan when you are ready to eat. For a Christmas party in Hurlingham, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
  2. You get a menu, a price and documents.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Plan cover in case of rain

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 for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
