Should I cook it myself?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- The address or venue name
- The date and time of the event
- Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
- Anything your venue supplies
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can send us your details through our quote form.
The process
The cooking is part of the entertainment. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook. After-work summer parties in New Addington have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We send any documents your venue needs.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- It is served quickly, then we pack down.
Preparing for the day

Paella compared with other options
Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella is served hot as soon as it is ready. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

New Addington questions
Can you cook in Addington Vale?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
What’s the nearest station to New Addington for guests?
The closest is Hayes (Kent) station, roughly 2.6 miles away.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.
Can you provide dessert?
Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
We can, if you tell us in advance. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, while the rice is cooking.
Do you cook at offices in central London?
Frequently, yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We’ll check with your facilities team.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t stop us, as long as there is a ventilated cover. We will make a plan B with you.
Working with your venue
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.
