How it works
We get there well before serving, unload, set up the burners and prepare the stock. Guests normally gather round to watch while it cooks. December events in White City are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. A summer party has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, venue, numbers, timings and dietary needs.
- You get a menu, a quote and any documents the venue asks for.
- We arrange access and timings with your facilities team or venue.
- On the day we set up, cook live and serve at the agreed time.
- We clear our cooking area away and leave the space as we found it.
How to prepare
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Share the running order, including any speeches
- Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking

About our corporate paella catering in White City
A cooking station gets people mixing, which is exactly what a team event is for. We cook canapé tapas, vegan and vegetarian paella and bowl food, and we’re regularly asked to cater charity and fundraising events and open days and launches.
For offices in and around White City, the cooking spot is generally a courtyard, terrace, car park or roof terrace, if the building allows it. Facilities teams usually need to approve live cooking, and loading needs planning. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in a separate pan.

What we need at the venue
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so the cooking area needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Sign-off from facilities for live cooking
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
White City is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before booking.

DIY paella versus live catering
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.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
Paella compared with other options
A plated meal needs a kitchen and a big team. Paella needs a level, ventilated spot and the venue’s permission. The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, plus any staff, crockery and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Waiting staff and crockery on request
- Hot food served quickly from the pan
- Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan
- We cover White City and the whole of Greater London

FAQs for White City
What about parking in White City?
London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll plan unloading around it.
Could we have live paella in Hammersmith Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Can staff get involved?
Mention it in your enquiry, and we will see what works.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces frequently work.
How much is live paella catering?
The price depends on numbers, menu, courses, staff and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we can plan it carefully.
Can you supply plates?
Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.
