How it works

Serving is fast: the paella goes straight from the pan to the plate, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. For a Christmas party in Hursley, it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking

Live paella or other catering?

Sandwich platters are easy but forgettable. Live paella is an event in itself. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.

Why Hursley hosts choose us

  • Sangria and bar staff available
  • We cover Hursley and the whole of Hampshire
  • Live cooking, not reheated food
  • Hot food served quickly from the pan

DIY paella versus live catering

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
