DIY paella versus live catering
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.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Approval from your facilities team or building manager
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
What we offer
- Bowl food
- Desserts
- Vegan & vegetarian pans
- Drinks service
- Paella lunches
- Canapé tapas
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s still served fresh. December events in Riseden are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
How to get a price
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.
