Questions from Minsted

Do you come out to small places like Minsted?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Can you cook at venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

When should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it’s worth asking.

Will there be enough food?

We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

What happens if it rains?

We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We’ll agree a wet-weather plan with you.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack down our cooking area after service. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.

Do you offer halal options?

We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we will cook a separate pan.

How it works

Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. When service is finished, we pack down. For a Christmas party in Minsted, it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Tell us when you want to eat

Our caterer checklist

Catering for every guest

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:

  • Ask facilities what documents they need from us
  • Make sure there are plenty of soft drinks
  • Get facilities approval early
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events

Staff can serve canapés or bowl food during a reception.

Churros or Spanish desserts to finish.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We’ll send you a quote.

Getting an accurate quote

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Which courses you have in mind
  • A picture of where we’d cook

Before you choose a spot

  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
