Common questions in Sinkhurst Green
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Sinkhurst Green too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
When do you arrive?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We’ll agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.
How many paellas should we have?
Two or three is usual: a meat or mixed paella, a seafood paella and a vegetable or vegan one. We will help you decide the split.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
How quickly can you serve a big group?
Yes. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.
What paperwork do you have?
Tell us what your venue or facilities team needs, and we’ll provide it.
How much paella per person?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a sensible margin. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

- Have water and soft drinks available
- Think about shade and seating
- Let us know how long people have to eat
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
We adapt if timings change.
