When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. Your guests will smell it before they see it. In Neatham, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- You get a menu, a price and documents.
- We agree access and set-up with facilities.
- We cook live and serve on schedule.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Before we arrive
