Spaniard Marcos Escudero Olano, however, didn’t agree with the paella rule.

He explained: “I have never seen anyone eating paella directly from the pan.

“It sounds quite disgusting actually.

“What really screams you are not Spanish is ordering paella when you are not in the Valencia area, thinking it’s the best or the most typical dish you can order anywhere in Spain (this screams out you don’t know much about Spanish food).”
