Festival paella catering in Snaresbrook

Festival paella catering for your event in Snaresbrook

Organisers can book us as a stall or as caterers for staff, crew, volunteers or VIP areas. Popular choices include chicken and chorizo paella, vegan paella and seafood paella, and we’re regularly asked to cater sports club events and agricultural and county shows.

In Snaresbrook, street events mean planning access and closures. Send us the pitch and timings. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Diets, allergies and planning

With a little notice, every diet is easy. Our advice:

  • Put picnic tables near the traders
  • Send traders one clear trader pack
  • Schedule crew meals
  • Ask about peak-time capacity

At the end, we clear the pitch and leave it clean.

Tapas and churros can be added to a stall menu.

What’s in the pans

Seafood paella

Prawns, mussels and squid for fish lovers.

Vegan paella

Vegan visitors get a real meal.

The process

Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That’s what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. Your guests will smell it before they see it. Evening events in Snaresbrook have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; after dark, we need a lit pitch.

  1. First, we check the dates.
  2. We agree what we’ll serve and where.
  3. We set up our burners and pans.
  4. Pans are cooking as gates open.
  5. We serve, then pack down.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm the venue is happy with live cooking
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
