Corporate paella catering in Willesden Green, cooked live

Live paella makes lunch an activity, not just a break from it. We cook bowl food, vegan and vegetarian paella and canapé tapas, and we are regularly asked to cater end-of-year celebrations and open days and launches.

In Willesden Green, work lunches are often short, so we plan pans and serving points to feed people fast. Tell us about building access and loading. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, with each paella cooked in its own pan and clearly labelled.

Willesden Green questions

Which station should guests use for Willesden Green?

The closest is Kensal Rise station, roughly 0.7 miles away.

What about parking in Willesden Green?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll work around it.

Do you offer halal options?

Yes, on request. Let us know your halal numbers, and it is cooked separately.

Can you serve a large team in a lunch break?

We can. Paella is served straight from the pan, and we plan pans and serving points around your timings.

Can you do a team-building activity?

Ask us about it when you enquire, and we will see what works.

How much space do you need?

A level space for the pans, burners and a serving table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.

What happens if it rains?

We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We’ll agree a wet-weather plan with you.

Can you cook at our office?

Often, if the site has a suitable space and allows cooking. We will confirm with facilities.

DIY paella versus live catering

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

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 be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.

The process

Serving is fast: we serve straight from the pan, so even a long queue moves. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. December events in Willesden Green are in the dark from about 3:55pm, so plan lighting where we cook. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. We start with your date, venue, headcount, timings and diets.
  2. We confirm a menu and a quote, with any paperwork your venue needs.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Tell us when you want to eat
