The process
We get there well before serving, 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 Wannock, it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving areas need good lighting. A summer party has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Let us know the timings for the day

Is live paella right for your work event?
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.
Why us?
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu
- A clear, itemised quote
- Every diet catered for, pan by pan
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
Planning for every diet
Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
- Get facilities approval early
- Provide shade and seats outdoors
- Share the timings for food
Staff can serve canapés or bowl food during a reception.
Churros or Spanish desserts to finish.
