How it works
When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That’s how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. The smell usually draws people over. After-work summer parties in South Newington have daylight until about 9:30pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Share the running order, including any speeches
Getting a price
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

What affects the price in South Newington
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- How long we are needed on site
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Anything your venue supplies
- Which courses you have in mind
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Your date and when you want to eat
The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Give us the details of your work event, and we will suggest paellas and extras to suit.
Catering for every guest
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up
- Make sure there are plenty of soft drinks
- Get facilities approval early
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
We leave the space as we found it.
Churros or Spanish desserts to finish.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
Planning the cooking area
Before the day, we’ll agree where we cook. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Somewhere close to park and unload
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
