Choosing a paella caterer

Is live paella right for your work event?

Buffet food sits out. Paella is served hot as soon as it is ready. Larger events typically cost less per head, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Why us?

  • Starters and desserts to complete the menu
  • Paella cooked from scratch on site
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment
  • No hidden extras in your quote

How it works

When the rice goes in, it’s left alone. That’s what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell typically draws people over. December events in Teynham are in the dark from about 3:50pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. Access, parking and set-up are agreed with you or facilities.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

How to prepare

  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Make sure we can park close by to unload

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

Catering for every guest

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Collect dietary needs when people sign up
  • Provide shade and seats outdoors
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies

The space is left clean and tidy.
