Personal / Private Chef hire, how does it work?
The hire of a personal / private chef can be by the day / by the weekend or longer, for a permanent position or for a short-term basis. We choose our personal chefs very carefully. We have a large variety of differently skilled personal chefs who can handle (almost) any cuisine style. Smart Services 4 All provides the very best of professional chefs.
In-home assessment
Your personal chef will discuss your specific needs and preferences in person / via email or telephone.
Menu planning
The personal chef will create a menu to meet your taste profile and dietary requirements.
Grocery shopping
The freshest and the finest ingredients, organic and free-range, whenever possible.
Advanced meal preparation
Depending on your requirements there are several ways in which your personal chefs time can be used. The chef will more than likely be cooking several different entrees and side dishes from scratch, this will take several hours.
However, your personal chef will be most willing to work with your schedule or situation, and make arrangements in advance, so that the cooking time fits into your schedule.
Kitchen clean up
The personal chef will leave your kitchen spotless.
