Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

How it works

After-work summer parties in Kirtlington have daylight until about 9:30pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
