What else we do in Littleworth
Catering for every guest
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Give separate numbers for children
- Collect dietary needs with your invites
- Put out bins for general waste and recycling
- Ensure most people can sit to eat
We are set up before guests arrive, so the cooking is under way as people arrive.
Tapas to start keep hunger at bay.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
How it works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. A summer party in Littleworth stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- First, we check the date and the space.
- You pick paellas, tapas and desserts.
- We set up the burners and start the sofrito.
- The rice goes in and your guests gather round.
- We serve hot and tidy our area afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Choose a level spot for the cooking area

Littleworth questions
We are having a ceremony at The Granary Church: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is typically elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
Could we have live paella in Shotover Country Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
Can you do sangria?
We can make sangria, and we can staff a bar with your drinks.
Will the neighbours notice?
There’s a cooking smell, but much less smoke than a barbecue. Let the neighbours know.
Do you cater in Littleworth?
Yes, we do. Littleworth is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
On request. Proper crockery or good-quality disposables are available.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Can you bring crockery?
Yes, on request. Proper crockery or quality disposables are available.
