Sunset in Bulphan is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June. If the party runs past dark, we’ll need light where we cook and serve.

- The venue’s permission for live cooking
- Clearance from fences, hedges, branches and anything flammable
As a London location, Bulphan is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Can we add tapas or canapés?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, while the rice is cooking.
Do you cater for vegetarian guests?
Of course. Vegetarian and vegan paellas are cooked in separate pans.
Should we have more than one paella?
Two or three covers most guests. We will recommend a mix based on diets.
Will it be noisy or smoky?
Less smoke than a barbecue, more smell. Let the neighbours know.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
