How it works
When we arrive, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. Sunset in Hatton is around 9:20pm in June, so canapés can go round outdoors on a summer evening.
- Send us the date, venue, numbers and serving style.
- We put together a tapas selection and a quote.
- On the day, we set up and prepare the hot tapas there.
- Canapés go round with the drinks, or table tapas go out to share.

Planning help
Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat events, such as annual staff parties or seasonal fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
For big numbers, we plan pans and serving points to keep queues short, so guests are fed quickly. Let us know how long the food break is.
Planning for every diet
Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because every paella has its own pan. A few tips:
- Separate seafood dishes from the rest
- Label vegetarian and allergen-free dishes
- Ask guests about diets and allergies
- Canapés need staff to serve
Afterwards, we clear away.
Waiting staff for canapés.
Is live paella right for your event?
Standard canapés can feel samey. Spanish tapas bring colour and flavour. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the set-up is much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
