Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.

About the dishes
Manchego & membrillo
Easy and classic.
Gambas al ajillo
Garlic prawns.
Is live paella right for your event?
A plated starter needs a kitchen and staff. Table tapas are relaxed and sociable. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and fewer staff to pay. Ask us for a quote.
