Corporate paella catering in Perrywood, made fresh on the day
A cooking station gets people mixing, which is exactly what a team event is for. Typical bookings include open days and launches and fundraisers, serving Spanish desserts, canapé tapas and bowl food.
At country venues around Perrywood, live paella brings a hot meal to wherever the team is. Let us know about access and parking. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.
Planning for every diet
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Ask what the venue requires from caterers
- Share the timings for food
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
- Give us diet totals and allergy details
Service is timed to your schedule, lunchtime or evening.
Bar staff and sangria on request.
Should I cook it myself?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Where we can cook in Perrywood
Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We look for:
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
