DIY paella versus live catering

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

FAQs for Ringwould

Do you come out to small places like Ringwould?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

How far is Ringwould from London?

About 67 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

How long do you need on site?

We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, and we time it to your schedule.

How quickly can you serve a big group?

It is ideal for that. Tell us how long the break is and we’ll plan service around it.

Can you cook in the rain?

Rain does not stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We will talk it through before the day.

What does corporate paella catering cost?

The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Can you cook indoors?

Typically we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. We’ll check whether your venue has a suitable space.

Can staff get involved?

Many teams enjoy watching and learning how paella is made. Talk to us about what you have in mind.

Working with your venue

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Tell us how long you have for food.

Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

How it works

Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it’s still served fresh. In Ringwould, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know the timings for the day
  • Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
