About our corporate paella catering in Hythe
Canapés, bowl food and desserts can be added, and we work with your venue on access and paperwork. For charity and fundraising events and team-building events, we can cook paella lunches, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas and more.
A summer party at the office in Hythe is easy with live paella, if the site allows it. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and service is quick once it’s ready.
Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To cater well for them:
- Have water and soft drinks available
- Let us know how long people have to eat
- Add a diet question to the sign-up form
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
We adapt if timings change.
Sangria and bar staff for drinks you provide.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella is an event in itself. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
Why us?
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Events in Hythe and across Kent
- Hot food served quickly from the pan
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
