Corporate paella catering in Rush Green

Corporate paella catering for your work event in Rush Green

A paella station turns lunch into part of the event. Popular choices include vegan and vegetarian paella, bowl food and canapé tapas, and typical bookings are for conferences and training days and open days and launches.

For offices in and around Rush Green, the cooking spot is usually a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Facilities teams usually need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. Everything is cooked from scratch at your work event, never made in advance and reheated.

FAQs for Rush Green

What’s the nearest station to Rush Green for guests?

The closest is Romford station, roughly 0.7 miles away.

Could we have live paella in Harrow Lodge Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

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

How much paella per person?

Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. Our guide to portions explains more.

Do you cook at offices in central London?

Often, yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We’ll confirm with facilities.

Do you do starters?

Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.

What space do you need to cook?

A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.

Should we have more than one paella?

Typically two or three, so every guest has a choice. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we will suggest the mix.

Step by step

We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you’re free to enjoy your work event. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first while the paella cooks. December events in Rush Green are in the dark from about 3:50pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

About the dishes

Vegan and vegetarian pans

Cooked separately with their own stock, so everyone eats well.

Paella lunches

Two or three paellas served from the pan, quick to serve to a big team.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.

Organising for someone else?

Hosting a party at home? Send us a picture of the garden and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether live paella will work.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on timings and set-up.
