Live paella catering in Radclive

Planning for every diet

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. Here are a few tips for planning:

  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Have seats for most of your guests
  • Add a dietary question to your invitations

Any staff you book serve and clear, so you can enjoy your guests.

Bread, salad and lemon wedges make the meal go further.

Paella catering in Radclive, made fresh on the day

A couple of different pans covers everyone: meat, seafood and vegetarian or vegan paellas. Every pan is cooked on its own, so diets are easy to manage. On the menu are vegetable paella, vegan paella and paella Valenciana, and typical bookings are for retirement celebrations and festivals, fairs and school events.

Somewhere like Radclive, a field or garden is frequently the perfect setting. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. All the cooking equipment comes with us, and we clear our cooking area away afterwards.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. 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.

DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.

How to compare caterers

Your questions about paella catering in Radclive

We’re having a ceremony at Church of St John: can you cater afterwards?

Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking generally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.

How far is Radclive from London?

About 52 miles from central London.

How does live paella catering work?

We arrive with pans, burners and ingredients, cook in front of your guests, and serve when you’re ready to eat.

Do you take everything away?

We pack down our cooking area after service. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.

Can you feed plenty of people?

Yes. Large pans and fast service from the pan make it well suited to crowds.

How soon do we need to book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.

What do you need at the venue?

Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. If in doubt, send a picture.

How much does paella catering cost in Radclive?

It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the courses, staff and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Dishes our guests love

Paella Valenciana

In Valencia, the recipe is fiercely debated. The classic version is chicken, green beans and butter beans with saffron.

Seafood paella

Seafood paella starts with a good fish and shellfish stock. The shellfish is added late so it stays tender.

What we need at the venue

Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but there are a few things to check:

  • Somewhere close to park and unload
  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • Flat, firm ground for the cooking area

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

On the menu in Radclive

  • Seafood paella
  • Mixed paella
  • Vegan paella
  • Vegetable paella
  • Black rice (arroz negro)
  • Paella Valenciana
  • Chicken & chorizo paella
