Tingrith questions
Do you come out to small places like Tingrith?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
We’re having a ceremony at Church of St Nicholas: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Live cooking typically happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Does it make plenty of smoke?
There is a cooking smell, but much less smoke than a barbecue. Let the neighbours know.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do you cater in Tingrith?
We do. Tingrith is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Can the paella be cooked in a hall?
Mostly outside or under an open cover, since the burners are gas. We will check whether your venue has a suitable space.
Do you cook at halls and clubs?
Frequently, yes. We need a suitable spot and the venue’s agreement.
What space do you need to cook?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.
Why choose live paella in Tingrith?
A hog roast is great for meat lovers, but harder for vegetarians and vegans. Separate paella pans cover everyone. Premium seafood costs more than chicken or vegetables, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
