Your questions about festival paella catering in Aston
Is Aston close to London?
About 62 miles from central London.
Do you trade at school fairs around Aston?
Yes, if the school is happy for us to cook on site. Send us the date, pitch and expected numbers.
Do you cater for coeliacs?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.
Who clears up?
We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.
Do you cook it at the event?
Yes, always. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, in front of your guests.
Do you need power?
Let us know what the pitch has and we will confirm our needs.
Do you come to Aston?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, and Aston is within our area and the rest of Oxfordshire. To check your date, use our quote form.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:
- Put all trader information in one pack
- Check how many portions traders can serve
- Plan seating near the food area
- Schedule crew meals
We clear the pitch and leave it as we found it.
Catering for crew and VIP areas.
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.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
Planning the cooking area
Live paella is cooked over gas burners in large pans, so we need a suitable spot. These are the things we check:
- Room for our cooking and serving area
- Access for unloading at set-up
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.
