Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.

Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.

Planning the cooking area

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • Your arrangements for power, water and waste
  • Your trader pack and site rules
  • Room for our cooking and serving area

Not sure about your space? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Why choose live paella in North Mundham?

Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. Paella adds something different. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. We will suggest options to suit your budget.

Why book with us

  • Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment
  • Paella cooked from scratch on site
  • Options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in its own pan

Working with your venue

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

The process

Expect a friendly, organised team. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our cooking area, and cook and serve without fuss. Evening events in North Mundham have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.

  1. Tell us about the event, the crowd and the pitch.
  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. When trading ends, the pitch is cleared and left clean.

Before we arrive

  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
