The process
Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That is what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell typically draws people over. In Sidlesham, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We provide the paperwork.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- It’s served quickly, then we pack down.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
