A closer look at the menu

Vegan paella

A proper vegan main, in its own pan.

Chicken & chorizo paella

A crowd-pleaser for meat eaters.

Live paella or other catering?

Food that sits in a hot cabinet isn’t much to look at. Paella cooking in full view sells itself. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu to match. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Why Langley Green hosts choose us

  • Waiting staff and crockery on request
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment
  • Live cooking, not reheated food
  • Starters and desserts to complete the menu

Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you can choose exactly what you need.

Details that help

  • The courses you’d like
  • Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy numbers
  • Expected numbers

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, venue, numbers and diets. We’ll send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.

Step by step

Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so large groups are fed quickly. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. For an evening event in Langley Green, sunset is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.

  1. First, we check the dates.
  2. We agree what we’ll serve and where.
  3. We set up our burners and pans.
  4. The first pans are ready as visitors arrive.
  5. We serve, then pack down.

How to prepare

  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
  • Arrange parking near the cooking spot
  • Have a level space ready for the pans

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 it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
