Corporate paella catering in Lower Green, made fresh on the day
We plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so a large team can be fed in a lunch break. For company summer parties and conference lunches, we will put together a menu of canapé tapas, bowl food and Spanish desserts.
For rural venues near Lower Green, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Let us know about access and parking. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Organising for someone else?
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Step by step
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. In Lower Green, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, 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.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
How to prepare
- Ensure we can park close by to unload
- Tell us when you want to eat
