🥘 WE'RE BACK — AND WE'RE BRINGING THE FIESTA! 🎉
After a well-earned rest in March, we are firing up the pans again and kicking off April in style — and what better place to start than the stunning Barossa Valley!
📍 Angaston | Melba's Chocolate Factory
🗓️ Good Friday & Saturday
Join us for an unforgettable family experience where world-class paella meets artisan chocolate and the magic of Pizza Master — all in one incredible setting. Whether you're chasing something savoury, something sweet, or simply a brilliant day out with the people you love, this is the place to be.
And here's something to sweeten the deal even further — did you know that paella is not just delicious, it is genuinely good for you? 🌿
We have put together a little breakdown of the powerhouse ingredients we use in our paellas — from antioxidant-rich saffron and turmeric to vitamin-packed capsicum, chickpeas and extra virgin olive oil. It turns out that a great paella does not just satisfy your hunger — it actively nourishes your body. Who said eating well had to be boring? 😄
Come hungry. Come with family. Come ready to make memories.
We can't wait to see you there! 🙌

What a nutritious dish — your paella is packed with genuinely powerful ingredients. Here is a breakdown of the key health benefits:

Saffron is one of the most remarkable ingredients in the whole dish. It contains crocin and safranal, potent antioxidants linked to improved mood, memory support and anti-inflammatory effects. Gram for gram it is one of the most antioxidant-rich spices in the world.

Turmeric contains curcumin, widely regarded as one of nature's most powerful anti-inflammatory compounds. It supports joint health, brain function and immune defence.

Paprika is rich in vitamin A, vitamin E and capsanthin — a carotenoid antioxidant that supports eye health and helps protect cells from oxidative damage.

Extra virgin olive oil is the cornerstone of the Mediterranean diet for good reason. It is rich in oleocanthal, a natural anti-inflammatory compound, as well as heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and vitamin E.

Red capsicum is extraordinarily high in vitamin C — actually higher than most citrus fruits — and also provides vitamin A, vitamin B6 and lycopene, a powerful antioxidant linked to reduced cancer risk.
Pumpkin delivers a generous hit of beta-carotene (which converts to vitamin A), vitamin C, potassium and fibre, supporting eye health, immune function and heart health.

Mushrooms are one of the few non-animal sources of vitamin D, and also provide B vitamins, selenium and ergothioneine — an antioxidant that is quite rare in food and linked to cellular protection.

Chickpeas and butter beans are excellent sources of plant-based protein, soluble fibre, folate, iron and magnesium. The fibre supports gut health and helps stabilise blood sugar levels.

Green beans provide vitamin K, which is essential for bone health and blood clotting, along with folate and a good dose of fibre.
Onion contains quercetin, one of the most studied antioxidant flavonoids, along with sulphur compounds that support cardiovascular health and immune function.

Rosemary is rich in rosmarinic acid and carnosic acid — antioxidants with anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties that also support cognitive function.

Chicken and pork belly provide complete protein with all essential amino acids, B vitamins (especially B12 and niacin), zinc and iron — all critical for energy metabolism, muscle maintenance and immune health.

Rice is a gentle, easily digestible source of energy and provides small amounts of B vitamins and manganese.

Taken together, your paella is essentially a Mediterranean superfood — combining anti-inflammatory spices, antioxidant-rich vegetables, plant proteins, healthy fats and complete animal proteins in one pot. The combination of saffron, turmeric, olive oil, capsicum and legumes in particular makes it genuinely one of the more nutritionally complete dishes you could prepare.

P.S. If you have made it all the way down here — well done! I should come clean and admit I had a little help from AI putting this together. But what it confirmed is something I already knew in my heart after a lifetime of eating and sharing more than 1,000 paellas — this dish is something truly special. Not just a meal, but a celebration on a plate. See you in Angaston @seguidores! 🥘❤️

Paellas South Australia

Paellas South Australia

Hi @fans destacados @followers.
This Monday I was interviewed on the radio in ABC radio station.

They asked me about the costs to attend big events, like the Fringe, LIV Golf, etc... and yes, they charge a lot of money or even take 25% of your intakes, like in the Adelaide Oval and sometimes... both!

That's why you will not see Paellas South Australia in these kind of events, as we have to pay a lot to be there and we are taking all the risks, bad weather, low attendance, fees, ingredients, employees etc... while the organizers just take the money.
Of course there are costs to organize events, however that's how you finish paying $27 for 2 little chicken skewers.

We prefer to attend smaller events, up to 400 people, and provide a fresh paella, just cooked and ready at the requested time.
I really enjoyed catering last weekend for a 40th birthday party. Cooked for 50, feedback was very very positive and we left them several leftovers so they continued enjoying our paellas along the week.

This weekend, surprisingly, we don't have any event, so getting ready the signage and we finally finished the logo, that I'm attaching in this post.

If you would like us to attend your party, your work or to enjoy some paella, please contact us to help you out and offer possible solutions for your catering.

Bon appetite!!!

The Origin of Paella

Paella is one of the best-known dishes in the Spanish cuisine. For this reason, it may be seen internationally as Spain’s national dish, but Spaniards almost unanimously consider it to be a dish from the Valencian region; those who live there, in turn, regard paella as one of their identifying symbols.

Paella takes its name from the wide, shallow traditional pan used to cook the dish on an open fire. Paella means “frying pan” in Valencian, Valencia’s regional language.

As a dish, there are records it started around century XVI (1500) in the rural area around the Albufera lagoon adjacent to the city of Valencia, on the east coast of Spain, as peasants and shepherds needed to eat while working and using the ingredients they had available.

Paella valenciana is the traditional paella of the Valencia region, believed to be the original recipe, and consists of round grain rice, bajoqueta and tavella (varieties of green beans), rabbit, chicken, sometimes duck, garrofó (a variety of lima or butter bean), and optionally snails. Artichoke hearts and stems may be used as seasonal ingredients. Olive oil is used as a base, and saffron and (sometimes) whole rosemary branches are used as seasoning.

Paella de marisco (seafood paella) replaces meat with seafood as Valencian community shares a long coast with Mediterranean Sea where fresh prawns, fish and octopus or squids are used for seafood paella and other recipes.

There are 2 mains varieties of Seafood paella, Senyoret paella and Black Rice.  Senyoret means “gentleman” in Valencian and it is a seafood paella with all prawns peeled, as one customer did not want to peel them.

Black rice is a seafood paella cooked using squid ink and it is usually served with alioli.
