What happens on the day
The cooking is part of the entertainment. We start with the sofrito, add the stock and saffron, then spread the rice across the pan and leave it alone to cook while your guests chat. At midsummer, it’s light in Wroxton until about 9:30pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

Questions from Wroxton
Do you come out to small places like Wroxton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking.
How far is Wroxton from London?
About 68 miles from central London.
Can you serve drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Do you cater in Wroxton?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Wroxton and the rest of Oxfordshire. To check your date, use our quote form.
Can you cook in my back garden?
Normally, yes, if there’s a flat, open spot away from fences and branches. Send a picture and we will check.
Is the paella gluten-free?
A gluten-free pan is no problem. Tell us about any coeliac guests when you book so we take the right care.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Even if it is short notice, it is worth asking.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Yes, it is the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.
Should I cook it myself?
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.
Cooking paella for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s harder than it looks. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Dishes our guests love
Chicken & chorizo paella
It is one of the most popular pans at parties, though it isn’t traditional in Valencia.
