From request to booking, it takes 1.5 days (on average) to hire a Personal Chef
Hiring a personal chef can add a touch of luxury and sophistication to any occasion. Personal chefs are typically hired for private events such as intimate lunch or dinner parties, birthdays, and anniversaries. But they can also prepare meals for corporate events, charity galas, and weddings. You can even hire a private chef to host cooking lessons both in person and virtually.
The cost of hiring a personal chef will vary depending on your location, the size of the event, and the complexity of the requested menu. Elaborate dishes with high-cost ingredients for a large guest count will come at a much higher price. Most chefs and caterers will charge per person with fees ranging from $50 to $200 per plate. Contact the chefs listed above to get a quote customized for your special event.
While searching for a personal chef to hire, browse online profiles to read service descriptions and reviews from previous clients. This will help you learn more about their skill set, menu options, and reputation. Before booking, be sure to discuss any preferences or dietary restrictions to ensure everyone’s needs will be met. You should also clearly define the chef’s fees and what services are included in the price.
Once you find the chef you want to hire, finalize the details with a booking agreement through GigSalad. Our full-service platform lets you request quotes, talk to vendors, and make a secure payment all in one place. Every GigSalad booking is protected by our Worry-Free Guarantee, so you can rest easy knowing we’ve got your back. You focus on just relaxing and enjoying your delicious meal!
