Why live cooking beats a buffet
Some traders struggle with vegan and gluten-free options. A paella stall can have a vegan pan alongside the rest. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll put together a menu that fits. A simple menu can still feel generous.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. 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 enjoy the party, let us cook.
