How the day works
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. It needs a level spot with some shelter and good ventilation, which we agree with you beforehand. A summer party in Telscombe stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, 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.
- You tell us the date, address, guest numbers and any dietary needs.
- We suggest paellas and extras and send a quote.
- We arrive, set up in your garden or venue and start the sofrito.
- Guests gather round as it cooks, nibbling tapas if you’ve booked them.
- We serve from the pan and clear our cooking area away when we’re done.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day

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 enjoy the party, let us cook.
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
A buffet takes hours to prepare and leaves food sitting out. Paella is cooked fresh and served hot. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. We’ll send you a quote.

Questions from Telscombe
Is Telscombe close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cater a reception after a service at The Parish Church of St Lawrence?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Send us the reception address.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop us, as long as there’s a ventilated cover. We’ll make a plan B with you.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?
On request. Proper crockery or good-quality disposables are available.
Do you do starters?
Of course. Canapés with drinks or tapas for the tables, served while the paella cooks.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
What space do you need to cook?
Less than you might think: a level spot clear of fences, hedges and branches, with room for a serving table. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.
Do you take everything away?
We pack down our cooking area after service. Waiting staff can clear tables if you book them.
What we need at the venue
If a space isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another spot. The main points are:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Confirmation that open cooking is allowed
- Somewhere close to park and unload
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think before you book.
