How it works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. Evenings in Newyears Green stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the cooking and serving areas need good lighting.
- First, you send us your date, venue, numbers and diets.
- We put together a menu and a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, set up and start the stock.
- The rice cooks in full view, while tapas or canapés go round.
- We serve from the pan, then clear our cooking area away.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
- Keep the cooking spot clear of fences, hedges and branches

Planning for every diet
Most events have a mix of diets. To plan for them:
- Count adults and children separately

- Tell us what else is being served
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
If you’ve booked staff, they’ll serve, clear and help keep things moving, so you can enjoy your guests.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Weighing up DIY against a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. Ask us for a quote and compare.
For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
