How it works
When we arrive, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. In West Chiltington, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:20pm; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

Why live cooking beats a buffet
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, plus any staff, crockery and travel. We quote for each event individually.
Why us?
- Plates, cutlery and waiting staff available
- A quote that spells everything out
- Starters and desserts to complete the menu
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
