Finding the right candidate for private chef jobs
Some Private chefs have to be great team players. They are able to and used to working in fully staffed private households. Others may be required to work alone and on their own initiative. Having said the above, all of them have a passion for their chosen profession and an ability to satisfy the daily needs of the employer. This could be cooking healthy family meals, cooking for dinner parties or catering for larger numbers.
Dietary restrictions and special diets
Our clients often have specific dietary requirements, such as vegetarian and vegan, gluten or sugar free, Kosher, Organic, Keto, GI and so on. As a matter of fact, almost every client is different and therefore source private chefs to fit your unique requests. Some of our private chefs work with athletes and create specialist menus for them and their needs.
