Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
A DIY paella party works for small groups. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles separate pans for each diet.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party cooking. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Catering for every guest
Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included. To get it right:
- Keep seafood and meat dishes clearly separate
- Decide whether tapas are a starter, canapés or the whole meal
- Make sure dishes are labelled
- Add sangria or cava
Hot tapas are finished on site and served right away.
Spanish desserts to finish.
