Should I cook it myself?
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. Booking us means you get the show without the stress.
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
Broad Street: your questions answered
How far is Broad Street from London?
About 51 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cook near the sea around Broad Street?
Yes, with a sheltered cooking spot. Sea breezes cool the pan, so a windbreak, building or gazebo helps.
Can you cook indoors?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Is the paella gluten-free?
We can cook a gluten-free paella in its own pan. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance so we can plan it carefully.
Will there be enough food?
Quantities depend on numbers, timing and courses, with a little extra built in. Give us accurate numbers for the best result.
How much does wedding paella catering cost in Broad Street?
We quote for each event, so you only pay for what you need. Tell us your date and numbers for a clear quote.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in a separate pan.
Can paella feel formal?
Served well, it feels generous and special: canapés, table tapas, good crockery and staff serving the tables.
