Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Space, weather and the venue
Every venue is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Parking close enough to carry equipment

Your questions about corporate paella catering in Wichling
Can you cook at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Could we have live paella in Doddington Place Gardens?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them, and we will provide our paperwork.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Courtyards, doorways and terraces often work.
Can you serve drinks?
Yes, sangria. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Do you cater at business parks?
Often, yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or well-ventilated space and the building allows it. We will check with your facilities team.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Kent. See all areas.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, while the rice is cooking.
Is live paella right for your work event?
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella is served fast from the pan. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll put together a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.
