Planning the cooking area
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so we need a suitable spot. These are the things we check:
- Approval from your facilities team or building manager
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- Somewhere close to park and unload
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Live paella or other catering?
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Paella just needs a suitable spot. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we will suggest a menu.

Should I cook it myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
