What happens on the day
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. After-work summer parties in Maryland have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

About our corporate paella catering in Maryland
Work events need fast, inclusive food that keeps people talking. Live paella does all three. We are frequently asked to cater training days and conferences and team lunches, serving bowl food, vegan and vegetarian paella and paella lunches.
For offices in and around Maryland, the cooking spot is generally a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Facilities teams normally need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

Why choose live paella in Maryland?
Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella handles diets with separate pans. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- Crockery and waiting staff if you need them
- Catering across Greater London, including Maryland
- Fast service from the pan
- Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them

Where we can cook in Maryland
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
Maryland is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

Maryland questions
Could we have live paella in West Ham Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Is parking a problem for events in Maryland?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We’ll plan unloading around it.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Usually we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
Can you serve drinks?
We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
Is halal food available?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and it is cooked separately.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Is the paella gluten-free?
We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
Who books corporate paella catering in Maryland?
It feeds plenty of people quickly, which matters when time is tight.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
