The process

On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. For a late-May party in Delly End, sunset is around 9:00pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:30pm. If the party runs past dark, we’ll need light where we cook and serve.

  1. First, we check the date and the space.
  2. You pick paellas, tapas and desserts.
  3. The burners go on and the sofrito starts.
  4. The rice goes in and your guests gather round.
  5. It is served hot, and we clear away afterwards.

How to prepare

  • Give us your final numbers and diets
  • Choose a level spot for the cooking area

Catering for every guest

We take diets and allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Ensure children stay back from the pans
  • Have enough chairs for most guests

  • Tell us how many children are coming

We arrive before your guests to set up, so the cooking is under way as people arrive.

Tapas and nibbles while the paella cooks keep hunger at bay.

Common questions in Delly End

How far is Delly End from London?

Roughly 64 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Is Delly End too small for live paella?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

When do you arrive?

We get there in good time to set up. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, timed around your event.

Is the paella cooked on site?

Yes. We cook from scratch in large pans at your venue, in front of your guests.

Can you supply plates?

Yes, if you need them. Let us know what you have, and we will quote for the rest.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. Children frequently love a simple chicken paella. Tell us how many are coming.

Do you cook at halls and clubs?

Yes, if there is a suitable outdoor or ventilated spot to cook. Check the venue allows live cooking.

What happens if it rains?

We need a covered spot, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.

Planning the cooking area

Most gardens and venues can host live paella, but there are a few things to check:

  • A safe distance from anything that could catch
  • Access for unloading near the cooking spot
  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think before you book.
