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 will 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 handles separate pans for each diet.

Paella compared with other options

Compared with a barbecue, paella is served all at once, so everyone eats together. And nobody is stuck at the grill. Access and travel can make a difference to the cost, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. Everything is confirmed in writing.

Why us?

  • Tapas, canapés and desserts if you want them
  • Real theatre, not just catering
  • Everything cooked fresh at your event
  • We cover Walton and the whole of Buckinghamshire

How we price paella party catering

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Waiting and bar staff
  • Plates, cutlery and glassware
  • How long we’re needed on site
  • The number of people

Live paella often compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.

Details that help

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Which courses you have in mind
  • The date and time of the event
  • The address or venue name
  • Whether the venue has crockery or staff

We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. You can use our quote form.

FAQs for Walton

Do you come out to small places like Walton?

No, we cook in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.

Which station should guests use for Walton?

Walton has its own station: Aylesbury station.

Do you cater for coeliacs?

Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

Can the paella be cooked in a hall?

Generally we cook outdoors or under a ventilated cover, because we use gas burners. Some venues have suitable spaces; we’ll check with you and the venue.

Will there be enough food?

Pans are sized to your numbers and other courses. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.

When do you arrive?

It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance.

Which areas do you serve?

We cater across London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. See all areas.

Do you cater for children?

Most children enjoy paella, particularly a simple chicken pan. Let us know numbers and ages.
