Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

About the dishes

Chicken & chorizo paella

A smoky favourite with children and adults, and a good choice for guests who don’t eat seafood.

Churros

All ages love churros.

What affects the price in Enborne Row

Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • Plates, cutlery and glassware
  • Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
  • Your choice of paellas
  • How long we’re needed on site

Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest a menu.

What we need to know

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Diets and allergies you know about
  • A picture of the cooking space, if it is a garden or field
  • Roughly how many adults and children

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers

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.

Can you cater at a hired venue?

Generally. We need a suitable spot and the venue’s agreement.

Yes, and it is a popular combination. Tapas go out first, then the paella.
