Catering for every guest
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:
- Find out what paperwork the venue needs
- Think about shade and seating
- Check the building or venue allows live cooking
- Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
We serve at the agreed time, lunchtime or evening.
Canapés for drinks receptions.
Step by step
