What happens on the day
Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. For a late-May party in Sherington, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:25pm. If the party runs past dark, we will need light where we cook and serve.
- It starts with your date, address, numbers and any diets.
- You get a menu suggestion and a clear price.
- We arrive, set up in your garden or venue and start the sofrito.
- The paella cooks while your guests chat, with any tapas served first.
- It’s served from the pan, and we clear our area afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely

How our paella party catering works in Sherington

DIY paella versus live catering
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. 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’ll 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 keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Your choice of paellas
- Starters, canapés and desserts
- Timings and hours
- Guest numbers
Travel, parking and access can affect the price, so it helps to tell us about your venue. Everything is confirmed in writing.
Details that help
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- A picture of where we’d cook
- The courses you’d like
- Anything your venue supplies
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Every event is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually want. To ask for one, use our quote form.
