Silver Street questions
Is Silver Street too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Which station should guests use for Silver Street?
Sittingbourne station, about 2.8 miles north-east of the centre.
What do you need at the venue?
A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.
How many paellas should we have?
Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we will suggest the mix.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
Do you do Christmas parties?
We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
Can you cook at our office?
Many offices have a courtyard, terrace or car park that works, if the building allows it.
Live paella or other catering?
For catering that’s part of the event, live paella stands out. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. We will send you a quote.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What happens on the day
The paella is cooked in huge, shallow pans over gas burners. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. In Silver Street, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:15pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.
