Corporate paella catering for Upper Edmonton events
How our corporate paella catering works in Upper Edmonton
Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is the point of a team event. On the menu are vegan and vegetarian paella, Spanish desserts and paella lunches, and typical bookings are for summer staff parties and christmas parties.
In Upper Edmonton, work lunches are frequently short, so we plan for fast service. Let us know about access and loading. Timings are planned around your event, so the paella is ready when you want to eat.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. In Upper Edmonton, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

DIY paella versus live catering
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Planning the cooking area
Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but a few things matter:
- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
- The venue’s permission for live cooking
As a London location, Upper Edmonton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
