Can I cook paella for a crowd 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.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Events in public spaces, like parks, generally need permission. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
How it works
The cooking is part of the entertainment. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. In Woolston, a summer staff party stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.
- 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 agree access, parking and set-up times with you or the venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve on schedule.
- We pack down and leave the space tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Ensure we can park close by to unload
- Choose a level spot for the cooking area
How to get a price
We quote for each event separately, so you only pay for what you need. To ask for one, use our quote form.
