Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Choosing a paella caterer

The process

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up our cooking area, and get on with cooking and serving.

  1. First, we check the dates.
  2. We agree menu and pitch.
  3. Burners and pans go up.
  4. The first pans are ready as visitors arrive.
  5. We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
