Questions from Boveney

Can you cater a reception after a service at St Mary Magdalene's Church?

Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Churches rarely have space for live cooking, so the meal is normally elsewhere. Tell us where the reception will be.

Which station should guests use for Boveney?

The closest is Windsor & Eton Central station, roughly 1.7 miles away.

Do you do vegan paella?

Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.

How long do you need on site?

It depends on the menu and numbers. We agree the timings in advance so the paella is ready when you want it.

Do you do desserts?

We do. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana.

Do you offer halal options?

Yes, on request. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and it is cooked separately.

What space do you need to cook?

Level ground for the burners, pans and a table, outdoors or in a marquee or well-ventilated area, and the venue’s permission for live cooking.

Can you cater the whole day?

Yes. Canapé tapas, table tapas, a paella wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts, or any part of that.

Step by step

Watching it cook is half the fun. Onion, garlic, peppers and tomato go in first, then the stock and saffron, then the rice, which cooks without stirring while your guests chat. In Boveney, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, so an evening paella for evening guests is generally served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting for the cooking area.

  1. Send us your wedding date, venue and numbers.
  2. Together we plan each course.
  3. Timings are agreed with your venue.
  4. We cook live on the day and serve each course.
  5. We clear our area; staff stay as booked.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us where to park and unload
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook
