How long does the paella take?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.

What else we do in Landport
DIY paella versus live catering
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Planning a team event in Landport
Landport is about 1 mile south-west of Portsmouth, in Portsmouth. From the centre of Landport to the outskirts, we offer the same service: paella cooked live, every diet catered for and a clear quote. Landport is one of 19 places in Portsmouth we cover. We cook right across the region, from Landport to Southampton (16 miles away).
Central London is about 65 miles from Landport, so it’s a practical spot for away days and team events. Within about 2 miles of the sea, seafood paella is popular for team events.
Anywhere in PO1, PO2 and PO5, we can cook for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Your work event could be at a home on Lake Road, Watts Road and Alfred Road.

Within a short drive, we also cover Wymering (3 miles north), Paulsgrove (3 miles north), Cosham (3 miles north), Drayton (3 miles north-east) and Farlington (4 miles north-east).

How it works
When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That’s how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. The smell generally draws people over. December events in Landport are in the dark from about 4:00pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- We agree access and set-up with facilities.
- We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Ensure we can park close by to unload
- Share the running order, including any speeches
How to get a price
We quote for each event separately, so you only pay for what you need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
What we need at the venue
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- Somewhere close to park and unload
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Sandwich platters are easy but forgettable. Live paella is an event in itself. Tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are optional extras, so you only pay for what you want.
