About our corporate paella catering in Ramsnest Common
Corporate events need food that feeds a crowd quickly, suits every diet and does not stop people talking. Live paella ticks every box. Whether it is customer events and product launches and open days, we’ll put together a menu of vegan and vegetarian paella, canapé tapas and bowl food.
An away day near Ramsnest Common is a good fit for live paella: no kitchen needed, just level ground and access. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
Live paella or other catering?
If you want catering that becomes part of the event, live paella stands out. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. We itemise everything in your quote.
Why book with us
- Waiting staff and crockery on request
- Drinks service on request
- Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts
- Hot food served quickly from the pan
