How it works
We work to your timings. If things run behind, we adjust the cooking so it’s still served fresh. A summer party in Stubbington stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- It starts with your date, address, numbers and any diets.
- We suggest paellas and extras and send a quote.
- On the day we arrive, set up our cooking area and start cooking.
- Guests gather round as it cooks, nibbling tapas if you’ve booked them.
- It’s served from the pan, and we clear our area afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Get the venue’s permission for cooking
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
- Leave space around the cooking area
