Organising for someone else?

For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so everyone eats promptly. Let us know how long the food break is.

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on access and timings.

Your questions about paella party catering in Burley Street

Do you cater in the New Forest National Park?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and cooking, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Is Burley Street too small for live paella?

No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Is halal food available?

We can. Let us know your halal numbers, and we’ll cook a separate pan.

Do you cook inside?

Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.

Will there be enough food?

Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a sensible margin. Accurate numbers help.

Is my garden big enough?

Many gardens work. We need level ground, clearance and access. A photo helps.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.

Can you cater at a hired venue?

Often, yes. We need somewhere outside or well ventilated to cook, and the venue’s permission.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. A big pan needs a burner that heats it evenly, and getting the rice right for dozens of people takes experience. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.

How the day works

We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you are free to enjoy your party. If you’ve chosen tapas or canapés, they go out first as the rice is cooking. For a late-May party in Burley Street, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:25pm. After dark, the cooking area needs good lighting.

  1. We check your date and the space.
  2. You choose your paellas and any extras.
  3. We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
  4. In goes the rice, and guests gather.
  5. We serve hot and tidy our area afterwards.

Getting ready for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
