The menu, dish by dish
Bowl food
Bowl food lets guests eat while they mingle.
Vegan and vegetarian pans
Separate pans with plant-based stock, so everyone eats well.
Should I cook it myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
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.
Planning the cooking area
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
As a London location, Northumberland Heath is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think.
