If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think.

DIY paella versus live catering
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
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.

It suits summer parties especially well, paired with lawn games and music.
Here are some of the events we cook for:

For event organisers in Mott's Mill
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Dietary needs and planning tips
Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. We suggest:
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
- Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
- Let us know how long people have to eat
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up

Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces frequently work.
What about pudding?

Rain does not stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We’ll talk it through before the day.
The process
The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, and we agree where that is before the day. For a Christmas party in Mott's Mill, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
