From Valencia (Spain) to Austin, Mi Paella brings an unforgettable culinary experience right to you

Chef Saul Arteta’s passion for creativity transcends the kitchen world and aligns with music and arts. He is not only a chef but also a sound engineer, music producer, guitarist player, and graphic and drawing artist. Born in Valencia and educated in France, this 4 languages speaker breathes innovation, love for perfection and kindness in everything he does. For him a paella is more than a spanish traditional dish: is a personal language in which he communicates his inner self with guests putting a piece of his own soul in every bite. He has traveled and cooked in different corners of the globe, becoming an amazing mix of the most traditional Spanish recipes from his native Valencia, the elegant European ways in which he immersed himself while living in Brussels and France, and the final and exotic touch learned in Thailand. Chef Saul Arteta has set up a new generation of paella chefs in the city, teaching them the secrets of his cooking methods. The new chefs learn step by step not only the technique but the spirit of the most famous Spanish dish: cooking the rice at its right punto, choosing the best and fresher products, the artistry behind every cut, the perfect choice of spices, and of course, how to use the big paella pans, the heart of this authentic Spanish flavor.

❤️ We’re often asked what the secret ingredient in our paella is…

The answer is simple: love for what we do and pride in doing it right.

It’s about taking care with every detail, using the best ingredients, making everything by hand, respecting the tradition, and always striving to cook the best paella.

And there’s a moment that makes us especially happy: when we look at the paella and know it’s just right. The rice perfectly cooked, the flavors balanced, that beautiful socarrat… and knowing we’ve brought a little piece of Valencia, Spain, to Austin, Texas. 🇪🇸❤️🇺🇸

Because to us, paella is more than food. It’s tradition, passion, craftsmanship, and love for what we do.

That’s our secret ingredient. ❤️🥘Salud y Rock&Roll, amigos!! 🤘🎸

A little piece of Valencia in Austin. 🇪🇸🥘

There’s something special about the way paella is served in Valencia.

We serve our paella in mini paella pans — a tradition and presentation inspired by our hometown of Valencia, Spain.

We brought this tradition with us to Austin and made it part of the Mi Paella experience. ❤️‍🔥

You may see similar pans around, but we are the Valencians who brought this tradition to Austin.

Because for us, paella isn’t just about the recipe.

It’s about where it comes from, how it’s cooked, and how it’s shared.

From Valencia to Austin — one little paella pan at a time. 🇪🇸 → 🤠🥘

There is an art to authentic paella.

It begins long before the first grain of rice touches the pan—with carefully selected ingredients, respect for tradition, patience, and fire.

Every layer of flavor is built step by step. Every ingredient has its moment. Nothing is rushed.

Because great paella isn’t simply cooked—it’s crafted.

Authentic. Fresh. Cooked live. From Valencia, Spain, to 📍Austin, Texas

Spain doesn’t just teach you how to cook — it teaches you how to live around food. We grew up where meals are loud, tables are crowded, and someone is always asking if you want seconds (the answer is always yes). 🇪🇸

That’s the difference when your paella is made by people who didn’t just learn the recipe — we lived it. ❤️

The flavors, the timing, the rhythm of sharing a pan… it’s the real Spanish experience, served Austin-style.

When we cook, you’re not just getting catering — you’re getting a table that feels alive.

That easygoing spirit — enjoying the little things, laughing too loud, and always making room for one more bite — is exactly what we try to bring to every event we serve back in Austin.

Because great food isn’t just cooked… it’s felt. And trust me, we’re bringing a little piece of Spain with every pan. ❤️
