Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us cook.

Common questions in Deepcut
Which station should guests use for Deepcut?
Farnborough North station, about 1.9 miles west of the centre.
Could we have live paella in Frimley Lodge Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
How long does the paella take?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance.
Can you serve drinks?
We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
Do you cook inside?
Generally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, since the burners are gas. Some venues have suitable spaces; we will check with you and the venue.
Does it make a lot of smoke?
Less smoke than a barbecue, more smell, and it is a good smell. Let the neighbours know.
Can you provide dessert?
Yes. Churros, crema catalana and tarta de Santiago are popular choices, or you can serve your own cake.
How much is live paella catering?
We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
