Step by step
On the day, we set up our cooking area, light the burners and start the sofrito. Once the rice goes in, it takes about 20 minutes, so the timing is planned around your event. For a summer wedding in Little Kingshill, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, which means evening paella is typically served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- First, we check your date.
- You pick the courses and dishes.
- We confirm the plan with your coordinator.
- The pans cook while guests enjoy the drinks.
- We serve, then pack down.
Getting ready for the day

Cook it yourself or book a caterer?
Not sure whether to cook yourself or book a caterer? Consider your numbers, your guests’ diets and your own time. We are happy to give you a quote to compare.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
Where we can cook in Little Kingshill
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A level, firm spot for the burners and pans
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think before booking.

- Evening paella

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Food trucks serve one order at a time, which can mean long queues at a wedding. Paella pans serve many guests quickly. Compared with a plated meal, live paella is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. We will send you a quote.
