DIY paella versus live catering
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.
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
Is live paella right for your work event?
For catering that is part of the event, live paella is a strong choice. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Can you do a team-building activity?
Ask us about it when you enquire, and we will see what works.
Planning the cooking area
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so we need a suitable spot. These are the things we check:

- Somewhere close to park and unload
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
Pimlico is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
