Bovingdon Green questions
Do you come out to small places like Bovingdon Green?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
Do you cater in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
What happens if it rains?
A covered, ventilated spot keeps us cooking in the rain. We will make a plan B with you.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.
How many different paellas?
Generally two or three, so every guest has a choice. We will recommend a mix based on diets.
Can you supply plates?
If you need them, yes. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.

We clear our cooking area away when service is finished. Clearing guests’ plates and tables can be added with waiting staff.

Most children enjoy paella, particularly a simple chicken pan. Let us know numbers and ages.

Step by step
A typical event goes like this: we set up the pans and start the sofrito, the rice cooks in front of your guests, and we serve straight from the pan when you’re ready to eat. A summer party in Bovingdon Green stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Timings and hours
- The number of people
Larger events typically cost less per head, because the cooking set-up is similar for different sizes of event. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

- Outdoor space or a ventilated gazebo
- Send a picture of the garden so we can check
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
