Step by step

We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. Summer events in Whiteley Village have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter markets, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.

  1. We check your dates.
  2. We agree menu and pitch.
  3. Burners and pans go up.
  4. The first pans are ready as visitors arrive.
  5. We serve, then pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Have a level space ready for the pans
  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • How many staff you need
  • How many guests are eating
  • Timings and hours
  • Whether you need crockery

Compared with a plated meal, live paella is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. We’ll send you a quote.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Approximate guest numbers, including children
  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • The address or venue name

Not sure what you need yet? That’s fine: tell us about the occasion and the guests, and we’ll make suggestions. To start, fill in our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Planning for every diet

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Ask for allergen information at each stall
  • Ensure the line-up includes vegan and gluten-free options
  • Provide seating near the food
  • Put all trader information in one pack

Pans cook in full view, and serve from the pan throughout the event.

Bowl food for easy eating on the move.

What we need at the venue

Safety and good cooking both depend on the spot we use. We look for:

  • Vehicle access before and after the event
  • Clear information on power, water and waste
