Step by step
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it’s served at its best. At midsummer, events in Oxshott stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we will serve and where.
- We set up our burners and pans.
- Pans are cooking as gates open.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
Before we arrive
