Private Chefs

Chefs tend to exclusively serve an individual employer full time. They may live in the house and be part of the salaried household staff. Personal chefs may be self-taught or have some culinary training. They work for more than one client on demand for special meals or several meals on a regular agreed upon schedule. Groceries and supplies will be taken care by these hired cooks. The prepared meals are packaged for the clients, who can either reheat the prepared dishes or finish the meal with some additional light cooking.

While some chefs may prefer using commercial kitchens others will plan on cooking in the home kitchen. A menu designed to accommodate client needs and preferences is a major advantage they offer over restaurants.
