How the day works
When we arrive, we set up the burners and pans and start cooking the sofrito and stock. The rice goes in about 20 minutes before serving, so the timing is planned around your event. At midsummer, it’s light in Leytonstone until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

Paella party catering in Leytonstone, made fresh on the day
Nothing gets a party going like the smell of paella cooking. People drift over with a drink to watch it cook. We cook seafood paella, vegetable paella and tapas, and typical bookings are for retirement and leaving parties and naming days and christenings.
In Leytonstone, a back-garden party is the usual choice, even if the garden is small. We need a level spot clear of fences and trees, and somewhere to park and unload. Send a picture of the garden. Tapas, canapés, desserts, sangria and staff can all be added, so one booking can cover the whole menu.

A closer look at the menu
Chicken & chorizo paella
A smoky favourite with children and adults, and a good choice for guests who do not eat seafood.
Tapas
Bravas, tortilla, croquetas and more while the paella cooks.
Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
You can hire equipment and do it yourself, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.
