A closer look at the menu
Vegetable paella
Vegetable paella in its own right, with peppers, beans and artichokes.
Tapas
Bravas, tortilla, croquetas and more to start.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
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.
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
What we need at the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A picture of the garden helps us check the space
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
- Access for unloading near the cooking spot
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
Popular choices
- Seafood paella
- Mixed paella
- Chicken & chorizo paella
- Paella Valenciana

Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public space, such as a park, check what permission you need first. We will provide any information the landowner or council asks for.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Step by step
Once the rice is in, we do not stir it. That’s how the grains cook evenly and the toasted base, the socarrat, forms. Your guests will smell it before they see it. A summer party in Beggar's Bush stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

Questions from Beggar's Bush
Can you cook in Silwood Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Can you cater a reception after a service at Church of St Michael and All Angels?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is typically elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, because we use gas burners. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our cooking area is packed away and left clean. Table clearing is available with waiting staff.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can you cook in my back garden?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a level spot clear of fences and trees. Send a picture and we’ll check.
Will there be enough food?
We plan quantities from your guest numbers, timings and other courses, with a little extra built in. Accurate numbers help.
