Corporate paella catering in Kensal Rise, made fresh on the day
Live paella makes lunch an activity, not just a break from it. On the menu are Spanish desserts, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for client hospitality and team-building events.
London work events in Kensal Rise often run to a tight lunch break, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Tell us about building access and loading. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.
