Dietary needs and planning tips
We take diets and allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Let us know about meals for your band or photographer
- Tell us how many evening guests to expect
- Decide whether guests queue at the pans or are served at the tables
- Add a dietary question to your RSVP cards
After service, we pack down our cooking area; any staff stay as long as agreed.
Sangria and bar staff can be added.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Compared with formal catering, live paella is relaxed and sociable, but with canapés, table tapas and good crockery, it still feels special. Live paella frequently compares well with a sit-down meal, because it needs no kitchen and fewer staff. Ask us for a quote.
Why us?
- Crockery and waiting staff if you need them
- Sangria, plus bar staff for your own drinks
- Real theatre, not just catering
- Fast service from the pan
Planning the cooking area
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:
- Open air or a well-ventilated covered spot
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- A cooking spot outside the marquee, not inside it
Yiewsley is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

FAQs for Yiewsley
Which station should guests use for Yiewsley?
The closest is West Drayton station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
What about parking in Yiewsley?
It can be, so tell us about parking bays, permits or a driveway. We will work around it.
Do you cook inside?
Indoors only where ventilation and the venue allow it. Most events have us cooking outside or in a doorway or courtyard.
Can you serve tapas as well?
Of course. Canapé tapas with the drinks, or table tapas to share, served while the paella cooks.
Do you do canapés and evening food too?
Yes. We can do canapés, tapas, the wedding breakfast, evening food and desserts.
Do you take everything away?
We take our equipment and leave the cooking area tidy. Ask us about table clearing if you need it.
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.
Can you serve drinks?
Sangria, yes. We can also supply bar staff for your own drinks.
Can I cook paella for a crowd 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.
If you do cook yourself, test the pan and burner together beforehand, keep the stock hot, and leave the rice alone once it’s in. Keep a clear zone around the burner.
How the day works
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. Golden-hour photos in Yiewsley at midsummer come around 9:25pm, so we can time the evening paella around your photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.
