Live paella or other catering?
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella is served fast from the pan. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
Why us?
- Waiting staff and crockery on request
- Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
- Real theatre, not just catering
- A quote that spells everything out
