Corporate paella catering near Jordans

How it works

A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. In Jordans, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  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. We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

How to prepare

  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Name one person we can ask on the day

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.

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

Prices and what affects them

Live paella pricing is straightforward once we know the basics:

  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
  • The paellas you choose
  • Waiting and bar staff
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables

Larger events generally cost less per head, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Getting an accurate quote

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • Which courses you have in mind
  • The date and time of the event

It is easy to get a price: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We will send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.

FAQs for Jordans

Which station should guests use for Jordans?

The closest is Seer Green & Jordans station, roughly 0.6 miles away.

Can you cook at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Do you cook inside?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.

We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices.

Can you do a team-building activity?

Ask us about it when you enquire, and we’ll discuss what’s possible at your venue.

Is it really cooked live?

It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.

Can you cater for children?

Yes. Children often love a simple chicken paella. Tell us how many are coming.

Organising for someone else?

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
