Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there’s shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.

Planning help
Space, weather and the venue
We will agree the cooking spot with you before the day. It needs to meet a few simple requirements:
- Level ground for the pans and burners
- A cooking spot outside the marquee, not inside it
- Parking close enough to carry equipment
West Ealing is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Hanwell station, in West Ealing itself.
Can you cook in Drayton Green?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
Do you cook it at the event?
Yes. We arrive with everything we need and cook on the day, then serve straight from the pan.
Do you offer halal options?
