About Pure Paella
Pure Paella is a Mona Vale catering business that cooks Spanish paella on-site at private parties, corporate functions and engagement celebrations. Everything is prepared at your event in oversized pans, so guests watch the rice, stock and toppings come together while the aromas fill the space. It works as both the meal and a talking point, which is why hosts book it for birthdays, anniversaries and relaxed social gatherings. Founder Lachlan learned his craft working in the kitchen of local chefs Mark and Louise Holland of Food Stuff, where he first began refining his paella. That grounding shows in a focus on fresh, locally sourced ingredients and careful technique. Menus can be adjusted to suit the group, with seafood paellas alongside vegetarian options, and a range of Spanish dishes available for private events. The team handles celebrations of up to 400 people. Staff are trained in food handling, a NSW Food Safety Supervisor is on hand at every job, and the business carries public liability insurance, which helps when a venue asks for paperwork. For corporate clients, the cooking suits anything from a boardroom lunch to a large conference. To check availability, send your date, event type and guest numbers through the quote form, or call or email, and the team will reply with a tailored quote.
