The process
The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. After-work summer parties in Little Ann have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- We check the date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Little Ann
How far is Little Ann from London?
Roughly 65 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Little Ann?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Do you work in winter?
We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?
We can. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes, we do. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
How much does corporate paella catering cost in Little Ann?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas and we’ll reply with a price.
Do you cater at business parks?
Many offices have a courtyard, terrace or car park that works, if the building allows it.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
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.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
