Your questions about corporate paella catering in Risinghurst
Is Risinghurst close to London?
About 50 miles from central London.
Could we have live paella in Stansfeld Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
Can you do a team-building activity?
Ask us about it when you enquire, and we’ll discuss what’s possible at your venue.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we make a separate gluten-free pan.
What happens if it rains?
We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We plan for rain with you in advance.
Do you come to Risinghurst?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Risinghurst and the rest of Oxfordshire. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
Can you supply plates?
Yes, if you need them. Tell us what your venue provides and we will include the rest in the quote.
How long does the paella take?
That depends on your menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you so the paella is ready when you want it.
Planning the cooking area
Every venue is different, so we ask about the space when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Approval from your facilities team or building manager
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

DIY paella versus live catering
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
