Paella catering in Tottenham Hale, cooked live
A single cooking set-up can feed a crowd, there is very little waste, and the food arrives hot. That is why it works for so many events. We are frequently asked to cater garden parties and summer barbecues and birthday celebrations, serving chicken and chorizo paella, vegetable paella and mixed paella.
Around Tottenham Hale, most London events we are asked about are in gardens, courtyards and hired venues.

Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.

A closer look at the menu

Seafood paella
Prawns, mussels and squid in a rich fish stock, cooked until the rice is golden. It’s typically the most photographed pan.
The process
Your timings come first. If speeches run late or the photos take longer, we adjust the cooking so it is still served fresh. Around midsummer it stays light in Tottenham Hale until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are generally served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting where we cook.
- 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.
- On the day we cook live, timed around your event.
- Guests are served from the pan, and our area is cleared afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Arrange parking near the cooking spot
- Plan cover in case of rain
- Give us a contact for the day
