Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Where we can cook in Stamford Hill
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- A level pitch on firm ground
- A pitch big enough for the pans, burners and serving table
- Clearance from tents and gazebos
Stamford Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
