Cook it yourself or book a caterer?

Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Think about numbers, diets and how much you want to enjoy the day. Ask us for a quote and compare.

If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, have hot stock ready, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

Dishes our guests love

Patatas bravas

Crisp potatoes with a spicy tomato sauce.

Gambas al ajillo

Garlic prawns.

Plated starters need a kitchen. Table tapas are relaxed and sociable. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu to match. Even a simple menu can be a feast.

Why us?

  • Every diet catered for, pan by pan
  • Food that becomes part of the entertainment
  • We cover Seer Green and the whole of Buckinghamshire
  • Served hot, straight from the pan

Dietary needs and planning tips

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Make sure dishes are labelled
  • Label seafood clearly
  • Canapés need staff to serve
  • Let us know if tapas are a starter or the main event

Hot dishes are finished on site.

Follow tapas with a live paella.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The paellas you choose
  • Starters, canapés and desserts
  • How long we’re needed on site
  • Whether you need crockery

The price depends on your guest numbers, the menu and how many courses you choose, along with staff, extras and travel. We quote for each event individually.

Details that help

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • A picture of where we’d cook
  • Your date and when you want to eat
  • What the venue already provides
  • Where the event is

Every quote is put together for your event. Tell us your date and guest numbers, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

How it works

Watching it cook is half the fun. 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. At midsummer, it is light in Seer Green until about 9:25pm, ideal for tapas in the garden. By late September it is dark around 7:05pm, and in December by about 3:55pm.

  1. Send us the date, venue and numbers.
  2. You get a selection and a price.
  3. We set up and finish the hot dishes.
  4. We serve canapés or table tapas.
  5. We pack down when service ends.

How to prepare

  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Share the running order, including any speeches
  • Make sure the spot is clear of anything flammable

Getting a price

It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and any dietary needs. We will send a clear, itemised quote and a suggested menu.
