Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
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.

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We will work around it.

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we’ll plan for them.
What areas do you cover?
We cater across London and the South East, including Greater London. Find your area.

Only in a suitable, well-ventilated area with the venue’s permission. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
