Live paella or other catering?
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs plenty of separate vegetarian food. Paella covers diets with separate pans. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
