Corporate paella catering in Ramsden, made fresh on the day

Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal.

At country venues around Ramsden, we can bring a hot lunch to the team. Let us know about access and parking. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, each in a separate pan.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.

Organising for someone else?

Organising a club, school or community event in Ramsden? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we will suggest a menu.

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

How the day works

We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, and we agree where that is before the day. For a Christmas party in Ramsden, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:30pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
