Why live cooking beats a buffet
Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella is an event in itself. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

If a space isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Facilities approval and any site rules
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
As a London location, Mugswell is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
