Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. 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 be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
Planning for every diet
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included. To make it work smoothly:
- Make sure there are plenty of soft drinks
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Add a diet question to the sign-up form
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
We arrive on time and follow your site rules, including sign-in and parking.
Canapés for drinks receptions.
