How it works

A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, your guests watch the rice cook, and we serve straight from the pan at the agreed time. For a late-May party in Boughton under Blean, sunset is around 8:45pm; at midsummer it is about 9:15pm. If the party runs past dark, we’ll need light where we cook and serve.

  1. First, we check the date and the space.
  2. You pick paellas, tapas and desserts.
  3. We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
  4. The rice goes in and your guests gather round.
  5. It’s served hot, and we clear away afterwards.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure we can park close by to unload
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Should I cook it myself?

Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
