   We always work with the best products and local farmers.

Sweet Earth Farm, where we buy some of our veggies.  

   We invite you to experience hospitality as a virtuous cycle of generosity - where all our effort, artistry, and expertise are devoted to one purpose: you and yours feeling celebrated and connecting over a great meal. What makes us a unique catering option is that we cook the paella in front of your guests as they gather around and experience the pleasure of the fabulous aromas, share drinks, tapas, pintxos and laughter.
