Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but you’ll still need to source ingredients, prep and cook for hours. We take care of all of it.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.

What we need at the venue

Every venue is different, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • Space to finish hot dishes
  • Space for a serving table or station
  • Permission from the venue

Enfield Chase is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think.

Your questions about tapas catering in Enfield Chase

Could we have live paella in Enfield Town Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.

What about parking in Enfield Chase?

London parking needs planning: let us know about permits or off-street space. We’ll plan unloading around it.

Can you serve tapas as well?

Yes, and it’s a popular combination. Tapas first, paella to follow.

Do you do vegan paella?

Yes, and they’re popular with everyone. Each is cooked separately, with its own stock and utensils.

What if the weather’s bad?

We cook under cover, such as a gazebo, marquee or open-sided barn with good ventilation. We plan for rain with you in advance.

Are the tapas fresh?

Hot tapas are finished on site and served straight away; cold ones go out as guests arrive.

Are there vegetarian tapas?

Many tapas are naturally vegetarian, like tortilla and padrón peppers. We label each dish.

Can you do sangria?

Sangria and bar staff can be added.

Step by step

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. Evening receptions in Enfield Chase stay light until about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so canapés can go round outdoors on a summer evening.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. We suggest a selection and a quote.
  3. We set up and finish the hot dishes.
  4. We serve canapés or table tapas.
  5. We clear our equipment afterwards.

How to prepare

  • Leave space around the cooking area
  • Make sure we can park close by to unload
  • Have a level space ready for the pans
