Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Planning the cooking area
We’ll agree the cooking spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Firm, level ground
- A pitch big enough for the pans, burners and serving table
- A pitch away from tents and structures
Hanger Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
