DIY paella versus live catering
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you will still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. A caterer handles all of that.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
What paella party catering costs
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Crockery and cutlery, or disposables
- Travel, parking and access
- How long we are needed on site
- Staff: cooks, waiting staff and bar staff
Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. The full price is confirmed before you book.
