About our corporate paella catering in Stockland Green
Work events are diverse, and food can easily leave people out. Separate pans mean everyone eats the same kind of meal. We cook canapé tapas, paella lunches and vegan and vegetarian paella, and typical bookings are for product launches and open days and training days and conferences.
An away day near Stockland Green is a good fit for live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. We cook every pan in full view of your guests, so it arrives hot and becomes part of the event.

Planning for every diet
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Confirm live cooking with facilities
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Collect dietary needs when people sign up
Service is timed to your schedule, whether that’s a lunch break or an evening party.
Canapé tapas for receptions and launches.
