What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we hold the paella at the right stage so it is served at its best.

For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting at the cooking spot.

Organising a club, school or community event in Mundaydean Bottom? Live paella feeds a crowd quickly and suits most diets. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest a menu.

The menu, dish by dish
Black rice
Squid ink rice is bold and savoury.
Vegetable and vegan paella
A slow sofrito, seasonal vegetables and a good vegetable stock make a paella that stands on its own. For vegans, the stock is plant-based.
Paella compared with other options
Food trucks and street-food vans serve one portion at a time. A big pan serves many guests fast, which suits weddings and parties where everyone eats together. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed before you book.

Dietary needs and planning tips
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To make it work smoothly:
- Collect dietary needs with your RSVPs
- Plan a meat, a seafood and a vegetable or vegan pan
- Have seats for most of your guests
- Let us know about other food at the event
Paella is best eaten as soon as it’s ready, so we plan service for when guests are ready to eat.
Add canapé tapas with the drinks or table tapas as a starter while the paella cooks.
Should I cook it myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
