Spanish Food
Unique Culinary Experiences
At the Victorian Villa, the heart of our home is often found in the kitchen. We invite you to experience the authentic culinary traditions of Murcia, Spain, prepared by our own José María. Whether you are looking for a refined 3-course candlelit dinner or a vibrant outdoor celebration, these experiences are designed to bring people together through the art of Spanish hospitality.
Paella Garden Party.
In Spain, Paella is more than a meal—it is a midday ritual. We invite you to join us in the Villa Courtyard for a traditional Paella lunch, where the cooking is as much a part of the entertainment as the eating.
The Tradition: Guests arrive for aperitifs in the garden. Watch as José María prepares an authentic paella over an open flame in his signature oversized pans. You are encouraged to gather around, ask questions, and learn the secrets of the perfect socarrat.
Your Choice: Choose from Seafood, Chicken, or Vegan Paella. (If choosing meat or seafood, we are happy to prepare a small supplemental vegan paella on the side).
Perfect For: Birthday celebrations, family reunions, or community gatherings under the sun.
Bring the Paella to You: While we love hosting in our courtyard, José María is also available for out-of-house bookings. If you are hosting a private event at your own location and would like the authentic spectacle of live Paella cooking for your guests, please contact us for a custom quote.
The Murcian Table:
A Private Three-Course Experience
Step into our Grand Dining Room for a curated journey through the flavors of Southeast Spain. José María prepares a traditional three-course Murcian menu, paired perfectly with hand-selected Spanish wines.
The Vibe: Intimate, elegant, and deeply personal.
Perfect For: Anniversary celebrations, friend reunions, or high-end corporate retreats.
Seating: Available for groups of 6-10 guests at our hand-carved Victorian table.
As these experiences are personally prepared by José María, availability is limited. Please email us to discuss your preferred date, dietary requirements, menu specifications and group size.
