Question 2

How much space do you need to cook paella onsite?

Accepted Answer

We require approximately 2m x 2m of flat space, but we can accommodate slightly smaller areas if needed. If rain is forecast, a covered area is appreciated - otherwise, we can bring a compact marquee to ensure everything stays dry. Our marquee is 3m x 3m, so we would require a little extra space.

Question 3

Can I remove ingredients from a paella due to allergies or preferences?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We can remove or substitute ingredients to suit your guests’ dietary requirements - at no extra charge. Just let us know in advance, and we’ll adjust the recipe. We can also add ingredients to your paella. Prices do vary depending on the ingredient.

Question 4

Do you provide lemon wedges with the paella?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide plenty of lemon wedges for everyone to enjoy with their meal, plus extras for those who want seconds.

Question 5

How do you protect my floor when cooking?

Accepted Answer

We bring a mat that we place under the paella cooking area to catch spills and stop any damage to your flooring

Question 6

Do you take your rubbish with you after the event?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we take all of our waste with us when we leave.
Our team will also collect all bowls and cutlery - meaning no clean-up for you.

Question 7

Do you provide containers for leftover paella?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide takeaway containers for any leftover paella and will place them in your fridge. Hot tip: it tastes even better the next day!

Question 8

How do I book paella catering and secure my event date?

Accepted Answer

Booking is simple! Just call or email us, and we'll send you a deposit invoice. A $100 + GST deposit is required to secure your event date.

Question 9

When do you need final guest numbers?

Accepted Answer

We require final numbers 7 business days before your event. If your guest numbers increase, no problem!
Just let us know - we can usually accommodate small changes up to 1 business day before. All our fresh prep is done as close to the day of your event as possible.

Question 10

Do you provide bowls and cutlery?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide eco friendly, biodegradable bowls and wooden forks as part of the paella catering service.
If you’re hosting a formal event, we can also arrange hire of plates, cutlery, and glassware.

Question 11

Do you need power at the venue?

Accepted Answer

The only thing we need power for is lighting at night.
If your event is after dark and there’s a power point nearby, great! If not, and you have outdoor lighting, that’s usually enough. We cook using gas, so we don’t need power for cooking.

Question 12

How big are your servings?

Accepted Answer

Each guest receives approximately 200–220g of paella, which is a generous portion.
We usually have leftovers, so guests can come back for seconds.

Question 13

Do you serve and supply beverages?

Accepted Answer

We are a fully licensed caterer with RSA-certified staff.
We can provide sangria, bar service, ice, glassware, and full beverage packages if needed.

Question 14

Can you cater for vegetarians, vegans or gluten-free guests?

Accepted Answer

All our paellas are naturally gluten-free and we offer vegan and vegetarian options that are also nut free, dairy free and egg free. We’re happy to adjust the menu to meet any dietary requirements.

Question 15

Can I include grazing stations, tapas, salads, or desserts in my catering package?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We offer a variety of options to enhance your event, including tapas, seasonal salads, churros, canapés, and grazing stations.

Question 16

Do you travel outside of Sydney?

Accepted Answer

We cater across Sydney and surrounding regions, including the Northern Beaches, Eastern Suburbs, Western Sydney and South Sydney. Travel fees may apply depending on your location. Due to high demand, we are no longer able to offer paella catering services outside of Sydney.

Question 17

Can you cook indoors or only outdoors?

Accepted Answer

We prefer to cook outdoors for ventilation and space, but we can cook in well-ventilated indoor areas or under cover if required. Let us know your venue setup and we’ll advise the best option.

Question 18
