Your questions about festival paella catering in Stonesfield
Do you come out to small places like Stonesfield?
No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Can you run a stall at a school fair in Stonesfield?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
Can we add tapas or canapés?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. They have their own pans, stock and spoons.
Is it really cooked live?
It is. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Stonesfield.
Do you cater for young children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers and ages, and we’ll plan a pan with them in mind.
Should I cook it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
