Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

Prices and what affects them

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • How long we’re needed on site
  • Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
  • Parking and unloading
  • The number of people

Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: staff, crockery, bread and salads, travel and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
