DIY paella versus live catering
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
For event organisers in Norbury
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

What corporate paella catering costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- How many guests are eating
- How many staff you need
- Parking and unloading
- Timings and hours
Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so the menu you choose affects the price. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

How it works
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your work event. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. For a Christmas party in Norbury, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- 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.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
How to get a price

Before you choose a spot
We’ll be honest if a space won’t work, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Facilities approval and any site rules
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
Norbury is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
