Step by step
On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. At midsummer, it’s light in Mundaydean Bottom until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

FAQs for Mundaydean Bottom
Which station should guests use for Mundaydean Bottom?
The closest is Marlow station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary the Virgin?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is generally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.

Yes, always. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, in front of your guests.

We can, if you tell us in advance. The rice is gluten-free, but stocks and chorizo can contain gluten, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

We cook under cover, like a gazebo or open-sided marquee. We will agree a wet-weather plan with you.
How early should we book?
Early is best, but ask even if it is soon. Send your date and we’ll check.
