What affects the price in Westwood

Your quote will be clear and itemised. What affects it most:

  • Parking and unloading
  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
  • How many guests are eating
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff

Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.

Getting an accurate quote

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • The address or venue name
  • A photo of the cooking space, if it’s a garden or field

Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.

How to compare caterers

Catering for every guest

Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included. To make it work smoothly:

  • Send us totals for each diet and any serious allergies
  • Add a diet question to the sign-up form
  • Ask facilities what documents they need from us
  • Plan shade and seating for outdoor events

We serve at the agreed time, lunchtime or evening.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

Should I cook it myself?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Westwood: your questions answered

Is Westwood close to London?

About 18 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Which station should guests use for Westwood?

Longfield station, about 1 mile south of the centre.

Do you do Christmas parties?

Yes, if there is a covered, ventilated spot. December dates go fast.

Can you cook halal paella?

Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in its own pan.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

How long do you need on site?

We arrive well before serving to set up and start the stock. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.

Can you send documents to our venue?

Send us the venue’s requirements.

How much paella per person?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.

For event organisers in Westwood

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

The menu, dish by dish

Canapé tapas

Canapés suit launches and client events.

Bowl food

Paella in bowls for standing receptions and networking events.

Step by step

Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring. December events in Westwood are in the dark from about 3:50pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
  2. We send a menu, a price and the paperwork for your venue.
  3. We agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
  4. On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, our area is cleared and left clean.

Before we arrive

  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
