Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Space, weather and the venue
We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- The event’s site rules and timings
- Vehicle access before and after the event
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
