Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. For conferences and training days and summer staff parties, we can cook vegan and vegetarian paella, Spanish desserts and bowl food.
London work events in Kilburn frequently run to a tight lunch break, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Let us know about access and loading. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

Where we can cook in Kilburn
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. These are the things we check:
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
Kilburn is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Kilburn questions
Which station should guests use for Kilburn?
Queens Park (London) station, in Kilburn itself.
Can you cook in Queen’s Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Should we have more than one paella?
Most events have two or three: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will suggest a split based on your guests.
Do you do vegan paella?
Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
That is one of paella’s strengths. Share the timings and we will plan for them.
Can you cater for children?
Of course. Children frequently love a simple chicken paella. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cook indoors?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.
What happens on the day
A typical event goes like this: we arrive, set up and start cooking, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. December events in Kilburn are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
- You get a menu, a price and documents.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook live and serve on schedule.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Make sure we can park close by to unload
