Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

- Diets and allergies you know about

The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Your guests are welcome to watch while it cooks. Around midsummer it stays light in Bush Hill Park until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm, we need lighting at the cooking spot.
- Start with the date, the place and the numbers.
- We come back with paellas to suit your guests, plus any extras.
- Closer to the day, we confirm timings and the cooking spot.
- We set up, cook from scratch and keep an eye on your timings.
- Guests are served from the pan, and our area is cleared afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure we can park close by to unload
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
- Confirm numbers and diets before the day

Nearly every event has some special diets. To cater well for them:
- Plan a meat, a seafood and a vegetable or vegan pan
- Tell us what else is being served
- Count adults and children separately
- Have seats for most of your guests
The rice takes about 20 minutes once it goes in, so we start it at the right moment for your event. If timings shift, we adapt.
