Paella party catering in Bush Hill, cooked live
Paella is relaxed food: served from the pan, shared and enjoyed, without any fuss. For big family gatherings and anniversary celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of vegetable paella, chicken and chorizo paella and seafood paella.
Throwing a party in Bush Hill? Live paella keeps you out of the kitchen, in a garden, on a patio or at a venue. Tell us about parking permits. We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests, each in a separate pan.
