What happens on the day
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and we serve straight from the pan when you are ready to eat. After-work summer parties in South Ascot have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You pick the menu.
- We provide the paperwork.
- The paella cooks as your team gathers.
- It’s served quickly, then we pack down.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
- Leave space around the cooking area

Questions from South Ascot
How far is South Ascot from London?
Roughly 26 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Could we have live paella in Silwood Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we take the right care.
Where do you cater?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including South Ascot.
How many different paellas?
Two or three covers most guests. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.
Do you do vegan paella?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.
What documents can you provide?
Ask facilities for their list and pass it on and we will respond.
Organising for someone else?
Throwing a party at home? Send us a photo of the garden and tell us about access, and we’ll let you know if live paella is a good fit.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We look for:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
