How Does personal cheffing work?

Initially, there will be a meeting to understand your food needs and menu choices. From there we will create a personalized menu based on your preferences. After you approve it, a ‘cook day’ will be set up. On that day, everything will be handled from shopping to cooking, cleaning, and packing your labeled meals with heating instructions. Your custom meals will be kept in your fridge or freezer. All you have to do is enjoy!

What are the logistics?

I will provide everything required for cooking, I just ask that you have the counters cleared and cleaned so that there is space to cook in the kitchen and provide adequate space in the refrigerator and freezer for storage. I also ask that you have the reusable containers provided cleaned and ready to be repackaged. It is up to you if you wish to be home during the cook day or if you wish to have it take place while you are out.

Why hire a personal chef?

Time is precious. Consider how long the shopping, prepping, cooking, and cleaning take. That time could be spent with loved ones, friends, or yourself. Moreover, serving fresh, unprocessed, locally sourced, organically grown, and sustainably farmed meals can improve physical well-being. Nutritious food can heal our bodies and also be delicious!

WHO WOULD BENEFIT FROM A PERSONAL CHEF SERVICE?

Our services benefit busy people, families, those with dietary needs, parents, and seniors seeking convenient, healthy meals. Enjoy gourmet food without the shopping, cooking, and cleaning. I am a strong advocate for fostering meaningful relationships and strengthening the bond of the mind and body. My passion revolves around the power of food and its ability to deepen your relationship with yourself and your environment.

WHAT diets do you ACCOMMODATE?

I am able to accommodate a diverse array of dietary preferences, spanning from plant-based vegan and meat-centric carnivore diets as well as addressing various allergies and intolerances.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PERSONAL AND A PRIVATE CHEF?

A private chef is dedicated to providing culinary services for an individual or a household, often residing within their premises to prepare all their meals. A personal chef caters to multiple clients by crafting tailor-made dishes that align with their tastes and nutritional requirements.

What areas do you serve?

I serve the following counties: San Francisco, San Mateo and Marin. If you are outside of these counties but are looking for a personal chef, please reach out and I can provide some recommendations.

How much does it cost?

The cost of service is determined by the specific number of meals you request and the amount of people they are intended for. Furthermore, it is influenced by the nature of the groceries you prefer - whether they are organically sourced or conventionally produced, farmed, or sustainably caught. For additional details, please don't hesitate to reach out.
