Live corporate paella catering in Minster Lovell

The process

When we arrive, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. In Minster Lovell, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:30pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We send any documents your venue needs.
  4. The paella cooks as your team gathers.
  5. It’s served quickly, then we pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Let us know the timings for the day

Questions from Minster Lovell

Is Minster Lovell close to London?

Roughly 66 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Is Minster Lovell too small for live paella?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Do you provide plates and cutlery?

Yes, on request. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables can be added to your booking.

Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?

That’s one of paella’s strengths. Share the timings and we’ll plan for them.

Can you invoice the company?

Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how we work.

Can you cook indoors?

Usually we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.

What paperwork do you have?

Ask facilities for their list and pass it on.

When do you arrive?

That depends on your menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance so the paella is ready when you want it.

How to compare caterers

Planning the cooking area

Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but a few things matter:

  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans

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

How we price corporate paella catering

Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • The length of service
  • How many staff you need
  • How many guests are eating

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.

What to tell us

To check availability and price, we need:

  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • The date and time of the event
  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • The courses you’d like

We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, use our quote form.

Planning for every diet

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Share the timings for food
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
  • Give us diet totals and allergy details
  • Check the building or venue allows live cooking

We keep the cooking area tidy and contained.

Canapé tapas for receptions and launches.
