New Cross questions

Could we have live paella in Fordham Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.

Which station should guests use for New Cross?

New Cross station, in New Cross itself.

Can you feed everyone quickly?

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

How many different paellas?

Two or three covers most guests. We will recommend a mix based on diets.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan a pan with them in mind.

Is the paella gluten-free?

A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.

Can you provide dessert?

Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana, or you can serve your own cake.

Can we pay by invoice?

Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through it.

Space, weather and the venue

We’ll agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
  • Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
  • A level, firm spot for the burners and pans

New Cross is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

Organising for someone else?

For larger events, we plan the number of pans and serving points around your timings, so everyone eats promptly. Let us know how long the food break is.

Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We can send whatever the landowner or council needs from us.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

The menu, dish by dish

Vegan and vegetarian pans

A proper vegetarian or vegan main, not an afterthought.

Bowl food

Bowls are perfect for mingling.

How it works

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up the pans and burners, and get on with cooking and serving. After-work summer parties in New Cross 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.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
  • Let us know the timings for the day
