Dishes our guests love
Vegan paella
Vegan paella cooked separately.
Chicken & chorizo paella
A hearty, smoky pan, popular with families.
Should I cook it myself?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
