  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
  • Confirmation that open cooking is allowed

  • Tell us how long the food break is
  • Include soft drinks and water as well as alcohol
  • Get facilities approval early

If timings change on the day, tell us and we’ll adapt.

Getting an accurate quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The date and rough timings
  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • Expected numbers

Each quote is tailored to your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we will check availability at the same time.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

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 be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

The process

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Your guests are welcome to watch while it cooks. For a Christmas party in Wallcrouch, it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
  2. You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
  3. We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

How to prepare

  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Getting a price

We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can use our quote form.
