FAQs for Furzton
We’re having a ceremony at Church of the Servant King: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a garden, marquee or venue nearby with a suitable spot to cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.
Could we have live paella in South Loughton Valley park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them, and we’ll provide our paperwork.
Do you cook tapas on site?
Yes, hot dishes are finished at the venue.
How much paella per person?
We size the pans for your numbers and the rest of the menu. Tell us what else is being served. See how much paella per person.
Is halal food available?
Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we will cook a separate pan.
How much space do you need?
Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.
What about pudding?
We can add a dessert. Tell us what you have in mind in your enquiry.
Is it really cooked live?
Yes. We bring the pans, burners and fresh ingredients and cook it there and then, serving it hot from the pan.
Should I cook it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, have hot stock ready, and leave the rice alone once it is in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
