Fairs, fêtes and events in Westerham
Westerham is about 5 miles west of Sevenoaks, in Greater London. For an event in Westerham, we can cook in gardens, marquees, barns, courtyards and offices in and around Westerham.

What we need at the venue
Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but there are a few things to check:
- A pitch big enough for the pans, burners and serving table
- Clearance from tents and gazebos
- The event’s site rules and timings
Westerham is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Why choose live paella in Westerham?
Hot-cabinet food lacks theatre. Paella cooking in full view sells itself. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

DIY paella versus live catering
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. 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.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.
