Broomer's Corner: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Broomer's Corner?
No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
We’re having a ceremony at St Mary's Mission Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Does it make plenty of smoke?
Paella is cooked over gas, so there is cooking steam and smell but little smoke. The smell is normally the best advert for the party.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, West Sussex included. Find your area.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes, always. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.
How many paellas should we have?
Typically two or three, so every guest has a choice. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. Halal paella is cooked with halal chicken and no pork or alcohol, in a separate pan.
Do you do vegan paella?
Yes, and meat eaters often go back for seconds. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.
For event organisers in Broomer's Corner
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, an office manager or an event organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
