Corporate paella catering in Walthamstow Village, cooked live

Live paella makes lunch an activity. Whether it is end-of-year celebrations and customer events, we can cook paella lunches, Spanish desserts and canapé tapas and more.

For offices in and around Walthamstow Village, the cooking spot is generally a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Facilities teams normally need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. Each paella is cooked from scratch on the day, never made in advance and reheated, and served the moment it is ready.

DIY paella versus live catering

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. 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 enjoy the party, let us cook.

Walthamstow Village: your questions answered

What about parking in Walthamstow Village?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll work around it.

Can you cook in Lloyd Park?

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.

What about pudding?

We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind in your enquiry.

What space do you need to cook?

Not a lot: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a picture.

Can we pay by invoice?

Ask us when you enquire and we’ll explain how booking and payment work.

Can you bring crockery?

We can. Tell us what your venue provides and we will include the rest in the quote.

Do you work in winter?

Yes, where the venue has a covered, ventilated space to cook. December dates go fast.

Can you cook indoors?

Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.

Paella compared with other options

Buffets can leave food sitting out. Paella goes straight from pan to plate. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll put together a menu that fits. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

Why book with us

  • No hidden extras in your quote
  • Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
  • Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
  • Cooking your guests will gather round to watch

For planners, venues and organisers

Hosting a party at home? Send us a photo of the garden and tell us about access, and we will let you know if live paella is a good fit.

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so everyone eats promptly. Tell us how long you have for food.

Step by step

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 as the paella takes shape. For a Christmas party in Walthamstow Village, it is dark by about 3:50pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and timings.
  2. You get a menu, a price and documents.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook live and serve on schedule.
  5. We pack down and leave the space tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Check the venue allows live cooking
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
