What happens on the day
From set-up to serving, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your work event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. For a Christmas party in Plashet, it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- The paella cooks in front of your team and is served at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive

Catering for every guest
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:
- Tell us how long the food break is
- Ensure there are plenty of soft drinks
- Plan shade and seating for outdoor events
- Ask facilities what documents they need from us
The cooking area stays tidy, and clear it away afterwards.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. 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.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
