I will help you select a plan suitable to your budget and work with the recipient on meal planning and a suitable cooking date



In the world of fine dining, restaurants offer a dazzling assortment of food and drinks. The only drawback may be the trip to the restaurant. In today’s entertainment scene, people are taking advantage of another option: ENTERTAIN IN YOUR HOME WITH A PERSONAL CHEF PREPARING A FABULOUS MEAL.

From an intimate dinner for two or a gathering of twenty-five, a Personal Chef can tailor each event for any specific occasion. When there are more guests, a buffet with all of the food prepared on site, may be another alternative.

It can be a very romantic evening with all of the dinner decisions made ahead of time. What a way to impress the special person in your life when you are going to propose marriage or if you just want the ultimate dining experience.

Business meetings are also becoming more popular in one’s home. Event planners are suggesting Personal Chefs to prepare meals in their clients’ home rather than taking their guests to a busy place. The atmosphere is more relaxed in a home and the host is able to socialize and talk more freely with each guest. Business entertaining can incorporate a sense of warmth.



A Personal Chef is a little different from other meal services since all of the food is prepared from scratch in the clients’ home. Since the host will generally purchase the wine and other libations, the total cost of the evening is usually less costly than entertaining at a fine restaurant.

The menu will be planned several days in advance of the party so all of the ingredients can be ordered if they are not readily available. If wine is to be paired with each course, selections must be made ahead of time so all is ready.

On the day of the dinner party, the Chef begins early. There are recipes to be finalized and ingredients to be purchased. Since the Personal Chef will use all of his own equipment, all of the procedures must be reviewed in advance to be sure everything is ready for the cooking process.

I will do a complete review of the facilities prior to the day of the party. The client may have limited facilities in the kitchen so planning ahead of time will be necessary so the Chef can bring any additional equipment.
