Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Planning for every diet
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included. To make it work smoothly:
- Make allergen information visible at every stall
- Provide seating near the food
- Book crew catering in advance
- Check how many portions traders can serve
We set up at the agreed time, following your trader pack.
Larger pans for peak times.

Questions from Bounds Green
Could we have live paella in O. R. Tambo Recreation Ground?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.
What’s the nearest station to Bounds Green for guests?
Bounds Green has its own station: Bowes Park station.
Do you cook it at the event?
Yes. We arrive with everything we need and cook it there and then, then serve straight from the pan.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three is usual: meat or mixed, seafood, and vegetable or vegan. We’ll suggest a split based on your guests.
Do you provide drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Do you do desserts?
We do. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
