How paella party catering works in Milton Keynes

Nothing gets a party going like the smell of paella cooking. People drift over with a drink to watch it cook. We are frequently asked to cater retirement and leaving parties and milestone birthdays, serving churros, seafood paella and tapas.

When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That is how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. Your guests will smell it before they see it.

Party venues across Milton Keynes

Parties across Milton Keynes are mostly in gardens, halls and hired venues, from Bletchley, Newport Pagnell and Bletchley and Fenny Stratford to small villages. Paella suits every one.

Milton Keynes: For guests coming by train, Milton Keynes Central station is in Milton Keynes itself. After a christening at a church like Church of Christ the Cornerstone, a paella lunch is an easy way to feed family and friends. At midsummer, it’s light in Milton Keynes until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. We’re happy to give you a quote to compare.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
