Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Live paella or other catering?
Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. A paella pan stands out. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.
Why book with us
- Separate pans for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests
- Waiting staff and crockery on request
- Sangria and bar staff available
- A clear, itemised quote
