Festival paella catering for your event in Kenton

The cooking is part of the show. Visitors stop to watch, take photos and come back for lunch. Typical bookings include village fêtes and summer fairs and open days and community events, serving seafood paella, vegan paella and churros.

In Kenton, street events mean planning access and closures. Send us the pitch and timings. Everything is cooked from scratch at your event, not reheated, and served as soon as it is ready.

Choosing a paella caterer

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.

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.

The process

Watching it cook is half the fun. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. Evening events in Kenton have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; after dark, we need a lit pitch.

  1. Send the event name, expected visitors and pitch size.
  2. You get our stall menu and what we need on site.
  3. We send the documents the event asks for.
  4. On the day, the pans are on before the busiest hours.
  5. At close, we pack down and tidy up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Give us a contact for the day

Planning help

Planning for every diet

Few dishes handle mixed diets as well as paella, because every paella has its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Check allergen info is on display
  • Feed crew and volunteers at set times
  • Agree waste arrangements with traders
  • Check how many portions traders can serve

If crew or volunteer meals are booked, they’re served at the agreed times.

Extra pans for busy periods.

Questions from Kenton

Can you run a stall at a school fair in Kenton?

Yes, if the school is happy for us to cook on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.

Is parking a problem for events in Kenton?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll work around it.

Can you do sangria?

Sangria, yes. For other drinks, we can provide bar staff to serve what you buy.

Will you have a stall at our event?

Send us the details, and we’ll confirm availability and requirements.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a flat spot away from anything flammable, with space to serve. Send us a photo if you are not sure.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

How quickly can you serve?

It’s one of the quickest hot foods to serve, which suits busy periods.

How many paellas should we have?

Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.

Why live cooking beats a buffet

If you want a trader that adds atmosphere, a paella pan delivers. Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the courses, along with staff, extras and travel. Every event gets its own quote.
