How it works
Your timings come first. If things run behind, we adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh. For a Christmas party in Maynard's Green, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
