What affects the price in Totteridge
Each event is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Distance and access to the venue
- Waiting and bar staff
- The number of people
- How long we’re needed on site
Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Anything your venue supplies
- The venue or postcode
- The date and time of the event

Corporate paella catering in Totteridge, cooked live
Bowl food, canapé tapas and desserts can be added, and we’ll work with your venue on access, timings and paperwork. We cook vegan and vegetarian paella, bowl food and Spanish desserts, and we’re regularly asked to cater launches and open days and office lunches and away days.
Around Totteridge, office events tend to use courtyards, terraces and car parks. Facilities teams usually need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. We bring everything we need to cook, and pack down our cooking area when service is finished.

Should I cook it myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Working with your venue
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a festival organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
Many venues have rules for outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.
How it works
On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. After-work summer parties in Totteridge have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- First, we check date and venue.
- You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
- We provide the paperwork.
- Your team watches the paella cook.
- It’s served quickly, then we pack down.
How to prepare
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Have a level space ready for the pans
- Give us your final numbers and diets
