How much does a private chef cost?
Menus start from $139 per head plus GST. The final price depends on your menu and the number of guests, and covers shopping, cooking, service and clean-up. Your quote is itemised, with nothing hidden.
What do I need to provide?
A kitchen, a table and your guests. Your chef brings ingredients and specialist equipment, and can bring crockery and glassware if you'd like.
Can you cater for dietary requirements?
Yes. Allergies, intolerances, vegetarian, vegan, halal, kosher-style and children's menus are all catered for; just tell us when you enquire.
How far ahead should I book?
Two to three weeks is comfortable; Saturdays in December go earlier. Short notice is often possible, so it's always worth asking.
Do you really clean up?
Yes. Your chef leaves the kitchen as they found it, or better. Wait staff clear the table too.
