How the day works
The paella is cooked in giant, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, and we agree where that is before the day. After-work summer parties in Seal have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
- We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
- Access and set-up are agreed with facilities.
- We cook live and serve on schedule.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Before we arrive
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Send us final numbers and dietary needs in good time
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
Ask for a quote
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, plus any dietary needs, and we’ll reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.

Corporate paella catering in Seal, made fresh on the day
Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. We cook canapé tapas, Spanish desserts and paella lunches, and we are regularly asked to cater away days and office lunches and client and customer events.
Team away days in the countryside around Seal suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. Every pan is cooked in front of your guests, so the food is hot, fresh and part of the occasion.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.

No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
