How the day works
Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell generally draws people over. For a Christmas party in Norham Manor, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
- We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
