For a Christmas party in Skippers Hill, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.

Dietary needs and planning tips
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Tell us how long the food break is
- Share diet numbers and allergies in writing
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
- Ask staff about diets in advance
Staff can serve canapés or bowl food during a reception, so guests can network while they eat.
Crockery and staff can be added.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
