12 questions to ask before booking

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
