DIY paella versus live catering

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

Barbecues cook in batches and struggle with diets. Paella covers diets with separate pans. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Why Sandhurst hosts choose us

  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
  • Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment
  • Everything cooked fresh at your event

The process

A typical event goes like this: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and it’s served hot from the pan when you are ready to eat. In Sandhurst, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Tell us when you want to eat
