Step by step

When we arrive, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. After-work summer parties in Littlemore have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies and diets are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
  • Find out what paperwork the venue needs
  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
  • Confirm live cooking with facilities

We adapt if timings change.

Should I cook it myself?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. 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 be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Planning the cooking area

If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:

  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
  • Parking close enough to carry equipment
  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the garden and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether live paella will work.

Prices and what affects them

The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
  • Waiting and bar staff
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Distance and access to the venue

The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
