Planning for every diet

A little planning makes sure everyone can eat. Here’s how:

  • Pair tapas with sangria, cava or sherry
  • Separate seafood dishes from the rest
  • Book staff to carry canapés round
  • Let us know if tapas are a starter or the main event

Canapés go round with the drinks as guests arrive.

Questions from Mundaydean Bottom

How far is Mundaydean Bottom from London?

About 31 miles from central London.

Do you come out to small places like Mundaydean Bottom?

No, we cook in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Can you do sangria?

Yes. Sangria can be added, and bar staff if you are providing the drinks.

Do you do desserts?

Yes, Spanish desserts can be added. Let us know if you’d like one in your enquiry.

Is the paella gluten-free?

Yes, on request. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but stock and some ingredients may not be, so we cook a gluten-free paella separately.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are welcome. Tell us how many and roughly how old, and we will plan a pan with them in mind.

How much tapas do we need?

Quantities depend on timing and courses. Tell us more for a suggestion.

What space do you need to cook?

Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, in the open air or a ventilated covered area, plus the venue’s agreement to cooking.

Is live paella right for your event?

For food that gets people mingling, tapas are hard to beat. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

What you get with us

  • Drinks service on request
  • A clear, itemised quote
  • Every diet catered for, pan by pan
  • Add tapas, canapés and Spanish desserts

The process

We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. At midsummer, it is light in Mundaydean Bottom until about 9:25pm, perfect for canapés outdoors. By late September it’s dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:55pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue, numbers and serving style.
  2. We put together a tapas selection and a quote.
  3. On the day, we set up and prepare the hot tapas there.
  4. Canapés go round with the drinks, or table tapas go out to share.
  5. We pack down when service ends.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Confirm numbers and diets before the day
  • Tell us where to park and unload

Ask for a quote

We quote for each event separately, so you only pay for what you need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

Choosing a paella caterer

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

A DIY paella party works for small groups. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles separate pans for each diet.

You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Read how to cook paella for a crowd.
