The process
When we arrive, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so we time everything to your schedule. Evening events in Furzeley Corner have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we will serve and where.
- We set up our burners and pans.
- The first pans are ready as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then pack down.
Getting ready for the day

DIY paella versus live catering
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is harder than it looks. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
If you want a trader that adds atmosphere, a paella pan delivers. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.
