Paella compared with other options
Plated meals need a kitchen and staff. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Step by step
Watching it cook is half the fun. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. After-work summer parties in Waterham have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers, timings and diets.
- We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
- We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
