Common questions in North Street
Is North Street too small for live paella?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is North Street close to London?
About 30 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you provide plates and cutlery?
If you need them, yes. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables can be added to your booking.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
When do you arrive?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We’ll agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.
Do you work in winter?
Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. Book early for December.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
