What Does a Private Chef Do?

  • Meal Planning: Creating weekly or monthly meal plans based on the client's dietary restrictions, allergies, and preferences.
  • Grocery Shopping: Sourcing high-quality ingredients and ensuring all necessary supplies are available for meal preparation.
  • Meal Preparation: Cooking and plating meals according to the client's specifications.
  • Clean-up: Wash dishes, clean the kitchen, and ensure a tidy workspace.
  • Dietary Accommodations: Catering to clients with specific nutritional needs, such as vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, or low-carb diets.
  • Special Requests: Accommodating special requests, such as preparing meals for children or catering to dietary restrictions.
