Ruxley: your questions answered
Do you cater in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Which station should guests use for Ruxley?
The closest is Albany Park station, roughly 1.5 miles away.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
It is ideal for that. Tell us how long the break is and we’ll plan service around it.
How many paellas should we have?
Usually two or three, so every guest has a choice. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.
Do you cover Ruxley?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Ruxley is within our area. To check your date, use our quote form.
Do you do Christmas parties?
We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
What paperwork do you have?
Let us know what’s required, and we will provide it.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
A barbecue cooks in batches and needs a lot of separate vegetarian food. Paella covers diets with separate pans. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.

Step by step
Here’s how the day usually runs: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan when you’re ready to eat. For a Christmas party in Ruxley, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We check the date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We provide the paperwork.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- Fast service, then we clear away.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
Getting a price
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. For a quote, use our quote form.
