Is live paella right for your work event?

Corporate paella catering in Wanshurst Green, made fresh on the day
Live cooking gets people out of their usual groups, which is exactly what a team event is for. Typical bookings include product launches and open days and company summer parties, serving canapé tapas, vegan and vegetarian paella and bowl food.
Team away days in the countryside around Wanshurst Green suit live paella: it needs no kitchen, just a level spot and access. The paella is served straight from the pan, so every plate is hot, and service is quick once it’s ready.
Working with your venue
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: where cooking is allowed, access times and the paperwork they need. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work to it.
