Is Leigh Green too small for live paella?

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
How it works
Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. After-work summer parties in Leigh Green have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Before we arrive
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Check the venue allows live cooking
- Give us your final numbers and diets
