About our paella party catering in Homerton
A paella party takes the cooking off your hands without turning the day into a formal dinner. We set up in the garden or venue and cook as your guests chat. Whether it’s anniversary celebrations and wakes and celebrations of life, we will put together a menu of seafood paella, chicken and chorizo paella and vegetable paella.
In Homerton, a back-garden party is the usual choice, even if the garden is small. A level spot away from fences and trees, plus parking nearby, is all we need. Send a picture of the garden. You can add tapas, desserts, sangria, bar staff and waiting staff, so the whole menu comes from one caterer.
