Is live paella right for your event?
Burger and hot dog stalls are familiar but similar. Paella adds something different. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

What we need at the venue
Before the day, we will agree where we cook. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- A pitch away from tents and structures
- Vehicle access before and after the event
As a London location, West Ealing is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before you book.

- Chicken & chorizo paella

Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
