South Moreton questions
Is South Moreton too small for live paella?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is South Moreton from London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London.
Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?
It is ideal for that. Share the timings and we will plan for them.
How many paellas should we have?
Typically two or three, so every guest has a choice. We will recommend a mix based on diets.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
Can staff get involved?
Mention it in your enquiry, and we’ll discuss what’s possible at your venue.
Can you cater a winter event?
We can, with a suitable covered cooking area. A steaming pan on a cold evening goes down well.
Can you do gluten-free paella?
Yes, on request. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.
Before you choose a spot
We cook in large pans over gas burners, so the cooking area needs a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Facilities approval and any site rules
- Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Diets, allergies and planning
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:
- Let us know how long people have to eat
- Get facilities approval early
- Add a diet question to the sign-up form
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
If timings change on the day, tell us and we’ll adapt.
Canapé tapas for receptions and launches.
