About our festival paella catering in Peper Harow
The pans are part of the attraction. Visitors stop to watch, take photos and come back for lunch. We cook giant-pan paella, vegan paella and seafood paella, and typical bookings are for country shows and summer fairs and fêtes.
For a village fête or field event near Peper Harow, we can bring hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground and access. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, each in a separate pan and clearly labelled.
DIY paella versus live catering
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
