The process
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, set up and start cooking, your guests watch the rice cook, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. For an evening event in New Denham, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.
- You send us the event, dates and pitch details.
- We confirm our menu, pitch needs and documents.
- On the day, we arrive and set up our pitch.
- The paella cooks in full view, and we serve from the pan through the event.
- We pack down and leave the pitch tidy.

How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.

Should I cook it myself?
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

What affects the price in New Denham
The same guest numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How many courses
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Timings and hours
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.
