Diets, allergies and planning

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Check the building or venue allows live cooking
  • Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
  • Find out what paperwork the venue needs

We arrive at the agreed time and follow your site rules, including sign-in and parking.

Planners, venues and businesses

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Maudlin? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Give us the details and we will suggest a plan.

Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.

How it works

A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. After-work summer parties in Maudlin have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. It is served quickly, then we pack down.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

How to compare caterers

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella pans serve many people quickly. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.

Why choose Love Paella in Maudlin

  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
  • Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
  • Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
  • Served hot, straight from the pan

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Maudlin questions

Can you cook near the sea around Maudlin?

Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.

How far is Maudlin from London?

About 53 miles from central London.

How do you work out quantities?

Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Let us know about any other food. Our guide to portions explains more.

Can you serve tapas as well?

Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.

What documents can you provide?

Let us know what’s required, and we’ll send what you need.

Do you provide drinks?

Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.

How long do you need on site?

We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, and we time it to your schedule.

Space, weather and the venue

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. In general, we need:

  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • A safe distance from anything that could catch
  • Level ground for the pans and burners

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
