How the day works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, which we agree with you beforehand. At midsummer, events in Enslow stay light until about 9:30pm, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree menu and pitch.
- Burners and pans go up.
- The first pans are ready as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then pack down.
How to prepare
- Ensure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Give us a contact for the day
- Give us your final numbers and diets

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
