You may misunderstand that hiring a personal chef will cost you
a lot and it is not worth it to spend such huge money on this!
This is a wrong idea. Personal chefs are now helping couples and
families to present fabulous home cooked dinners to their
guests. And it's not as expensive as you think!
The reasons of hiring a personal chef: A personal chef will
bring the food, create a nutritious and balanced meal, figure
out the servings needed (so you don't need to deal with
leftovers) and most of all give you the freedom to focus on
other aspects of entertaining while still providing the best
food for your guests. Are you hosting a business lunch? An
intimate wedding reception? Or even an intimate dinner for two
that just has to be the best? A personal chef can handle any
order. You can usually choose from a selection of courses they
provide or arrange for a customized menu.
The cost: Prices will vary but you can expect a weeks worth of
meals (containers, food and cooking included) to be about $350
for a family of 4 (20 meals of entrees and side dishes) or $175
for a couple (10 meals of entrees and side dishes). Some
services will prepare all the meals at once while others will
deliver or prepare the meal in your home throughout the week.
Place to hire a personal chef: Finding a chef is easy by using
the USPCA (United States Personal Chef Association) or the CPCA
(Canadian Personal Chef Alliance). Here you will find
information on personal chefs as well as a directory of members
in your area.
Don't view a personal chef as a catering service. They are more
professional. For busy professionals who are looking for quality
meals and more time with their family, a personal chef will
prepare several entrees and side dishes, store them and clean
the kitchen. For the rest of the week all you have to do is take
them out of the fridge or freezer and reheat to enjoy gourmet
meals all week. For families who turn to fast foods and
restaurants the cost may actually be less than what they are
currently paying. Some personal chefs also can be booked for
private or group cooking lessons. Invite a group of your friends
to learn the art of creating delectable pasties or sumptuous
seafood from an expert!
If you want to have a wonderful time at home, relax all day, no
need to wake up in the morning to do a cookery, a personal chef
is the best solution for you.
