What’s in the pans

Paella lunches

Two or three paellas served from the pan, ideal for a lunch break.

Canapé tapas

Bite-sized tapas carried round by staff during receptions.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

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.

Dietary needs and planning tips

Dietary needs are easy to plan for with a little notice. Our advice:

  • Get facilities approval early
  • Let us know how long people have to eat
  • Add a diet question to the sign-up form
  • Have water and soft drinks available

We leave the space as we found it.

Canapés for drinks receptions.

Is live paella right for your work event?

If you want catering that becomes part of the event, live paella stands out. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.

How it works

Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so large groups are fed quickly. When service is finished, we pack down. In Sarsden, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:30pm; 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. Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

How to prepare

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area

Common questions in Sarsden

Which station should guests use for Sarsden?

Kingham station, about 2.2 miles west of the centre.

Is Sarsden too small for live paella?

No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a photo if you are not sure.

Which areas do you serve?

We cater across London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. Find your area.

Do you cater for vegetarian guests?

Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans.

How much paella per person?

We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Do you provide drinks?

Sangria can be added, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.

Can you cater a winter event?

We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.

Organising for someone else?

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll follow them.

If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
