Sibertswold: your questions answered
Can you cook at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Sibertswold?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Do you do starters?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.
How much space do you need?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
How many different paellas?
Two or three is usual: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We will help you decide the split.
Can you cook halal paella?
Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in a separate pan.
Do you do desserts?
We can add a dessert. Let us know if you’d like one when you ask for a quote.
Paella compared with other options
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella just needs a suitable spot. Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.
