Live corporate paella catering in Lodsworth
How our corporate paella catering works in Lodsworth
Food at work events can easily exclude people. Separate pans for meat, seafood, vegetarian and vegan paella mean everyone eats together. Whether it’s client and customer events and summer parties for staff, we can cook Spanish desserts, vegan and vegetarian paella and paella lunches.
Team away days in the countryside around Lodsworth suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, never made in advance and reheated.

What happens on the day
Here’s how the day normally runs: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, your guests watch the rice cook, and it is served hot from the pan when you’re ready to eat. In Lodsworth, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
