Common questions in New Denham

Is New Denham close to London?

Roughly 17 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like New Denham?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Is the paella cooked on site?

Yes, always. Every paella is cooked from scratch on site, where your guests can watch.

When should I book?

The sooner the better, but it’s always worth asking. We’ll check availability straight away.

Can you cater at a hired venue?

Frequently, yes. We need a suitable spot and the venue’s agreement.

How many paellas should we have?

Two or three covers most guests. Tell us about your guests’ diets and we will suggest the mix.

Do you provide plates and cutlery?

Yes, on request. Crockery, cutlery and napkins, or good-quality disposables can be added to your booking.

Will there be enough food?

We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Let us know about any other food. See how much paella per person.

Paella compared with other options

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

What affects the price in New Denham

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Plates, cutlery and glassware
  • Timings and hours
  • How many courses
  • The number of people

Tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are optional extras, so you can choose exactly what you need.

  • Where the event is
  • Roughly how many adults and children
  • Which courses you have in mind

How the day works

We get there well before serving, set up the cooking area and get the stock going. Guests typically gather round to watch while it cooks. A summer party in New Denham stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. Send us your date, address and numbers.
  2. We suggest paellas and extras and send a quote.
  3. We arrive before your guests and set up.
  4. Guests watch the paella cook.
  5. We serve from the pan and pack down.

Before we arrive
