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 enjoy the party, let us cook.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. We take care of all of it.
