What is a private chef?

A private chef handles meals for a single household and can live at home or away. The chefs who live there usually use a single room or a small apartment and can also be provided with a car. Most of the time, a private chef will be at home every day, meaning they prepare every meal to order, including snacks. The chef will prepare the food and serve the dish for you. Because they are very experienced, they can prepare a wide variety of different cuisines.

Possibly the biggest disadvantage of hiring a private chef is that for someone on an “average budget”, private chefs are very expensive. A private chef works full time for a client in their private residence, whether it's a house, hotel or yacht.
