DIY paella versus live catering
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

How it works
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you’re free to enjoy your work event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. For a Christmas party in Newtown, it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook live and serve on schedule.
- We clear our area and leave it clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Tell us where to park and unload
