Corporate paella catering in Worth, made fresh on the day
Corporate events need food that feeds a crowd quickly, suits every diet and doesn’t stop people talking. Live paella does all three. Typical bookings include charity and fundraising events and christmas and end-of-year parties, serving bowl food, vegan and vegetarian paella and Spanish desserts.
Work events near Worth might be at a farm venue, a barn or the office grounds. Live paella works in all of them. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

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. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

DIY paella versus live catering
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. 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.
