DIY paella versus live catering
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
What we need at the venue
We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Access for unloading at set-up
- Trader information and site rules
- Flat, firm ground
Bentley Heath is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
