Step by step

The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. December events in Wavendon are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.

  1. Tell us the date, venue, headcount and timings.
  2. We confirm a menu, a quote and any paperwork.
  3. We agree access and set-up with facilities.
  4. We cook in front of your team and serve on time.
  5. We clear our area and leave it clean.

Before we arrive

  • Plan cover in case of rain
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day

For planners, venues and organisers

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers: cooking areas, access times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will follow them.

Events in public spaces, like parks, normally need permission. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.

Dietary needs and planning tips

We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:

  • Share the timings for food
  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Collect dietary needs when people sign up
  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies

We keep the cooking area tidy and contained, and clear it away afterwards.

Bar staff and sangria on request.

Dishes our guests love

Vegan and vegetarian pans

A proper vegetarian or vegan main, not an afterthought.

Paella lunches

Paella is a quick, hot lunch for a crowd.

Prices and what affects them

There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:

  • The length of service
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
  • How many staff you need

Tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are optional extras, so you only pay for what you want.

Details that help

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Whether you want canapés, tapas or desserts
  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
