Let us know your company’s process, and we’ll explain how we work.
Where do you cater?

Yes. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.
When do you arrive?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We’ll agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the garden and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether live paella will work.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Sandwiches are easy but forgettable. Live paella gives staff something to talk about. Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.
