How it works
When the rice goes in, it is left alone. That’s what gives paella its separate grains and crispy base. The smell generally draws people over. Sunset in Micklefield is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June. After dark, the cooking area needs good lighting.

Micklefield: your questions answered
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Andrew's Church?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking typically happens at the reception venue, not the church. Tell us where the reception will be.
Which station should guests use for Micklefield?
The closest is High Wycombe station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Can you cook halal paella?
We can. Let us know your halal numbers, and it’s cooked separately.
Do you come to Micklefield?
Yes, we do. Micklefield is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
How many paellas should we have?
Usually two or three, so every guest has a choice. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we’ll suggest the mix.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.
Can you set up in a small garden?
Often, yes, if there’s a level spot clear of fences and trees. Send a photo and we’ll check.
How long do you need on site?
That depends on your menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance so the paella is ready when you want it.
