Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and do not stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.

The process
We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. In Rush Green, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, so an evening paella for evening guests is generally served in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- Tell us your date, venue and numbers.
- We plan your menu course by course.
- Timings are agreed with your venue.
- We cook live on the day and serve each course.
- We clear our area; staff stay as booked.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a covered spot for wet weather
