How it works
Once the rice is in, we don’t stir it. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. Your guests will smell it before they see it. For a Christmas party in Seasalter, it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. Summer events have daylight until around 9:15pm.

Seasalter questions
Is Seasalter too small for live paella?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Is the paella cooked on site?
Yes, always. We cook from scratch in large pans at your venue, where your guests can watch.
Can you cook indoors?
Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
How long do you need on site?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance so the paella is ready when you want it.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
That is one of paella’s strengths. Share the timings and we will plan for them.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, on request. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables can be added to your booking.
What about pudding?
Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices.

DIY paella versus live catering
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
