Paella catering for Tylers Green events
How our paella catering works in Tylers Green
Paella has always been food for a crowd: cooked in the open in a big, shallow pan and shared straight from it. That’s what we bring to events in Tylers Green. Typical bookings include naming days and family parties and leaving dos and retirements, with mixed paella, black rice and vegetable paella.
In a smaller place like Tylers Green, a garden party is frequently the simplest option: no venue hire, and nobody stuck cooking. Tell us about access down the lane or drive. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

How the day works
Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That is how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. Your guests will smell it before they see it. In Tylers Green, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are normally served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting where we cook.

A closer look at the menu
Seafood paella
The secret is a well-made seafood stock. The shellfish is added late so it stays tender.
Vegetable and vegan paella
Seasonal vegetables on a rich sofrito base make a paella that stands on its own. For vegans, the stock is plant-based.
Live paella or other catering?
Next to a hog roast or barbecue, paella makes vegetarian, vegan and halal guests easier to cater for, thanks to separate pans. It is served quickly from the pan, so queues move. Larger events usually cost less per head, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
