What is a Personal Chef?
A Personal Chef can be used in different ways depending on your needs. He or she will do the shopping, come into your home, and prepare gourmet meals in your own kitchen. This could mean preparing several dishes, perhaps a week's supply, which will be packed, labelled and refrigerated ready for you to reheat at your convenience. Alternatively, they can be hired to cater for a one-off lunch or dinner party. They are only hired as and when you need them, so there is no fixed or on-going cost.
Why Use a Personal Chef?
Why go out? Perhaps you want a romantic evening for two. Maybe it's winter and you hate the cold, you don't want to leave the children with a babysitter, you can't drink and drive, or perhaps you just want to do something different.....and impressive!
Hectic lifestyle.Why spend hours in the kitchen when time is our most valuable & precious commodity!
A VERY special occasion. If you really want to impress, what could be better than your very own, Gourmet Personal Chef preparing a restaurant standard meal - and served in your own home?
You're not very good in the kitchen, or just simply not interested! We can't all be Master Chefs, and some of us don't want to be......
Unhealthy diet?. Using a Personal Chef Service to provide a healthy, balanced, weekly diet is particularly important to anyone overcoming sickness. But it's also important to anyone leading a busy life who perhaps neglects their diet and that of their family.
What Should I Expect From a Personal Chef?
Generally a Gourmet Personal Chef will visit you in your home to discuss or you can meet them @ Browns Hotel in Tavistock or 22 Mill Street in Chagford, we listen to your particular requirements and make menu suggestions. They will pay particular attention to any dietary needs and personal preferences.
They will shop for all ingredients and if necessary, source specialty suppliers.
They will arrive in your home and do all of the cooking to Professional Standards.
If they are preparing meals in bulk for a whole week, they will package, label and refrigerate or freeze all dishes.
If required they will arrange for the services of a waiter or a butler to serve the food.
They will clean the kitchen perfectly after they are finished.
