Can a private chef handle an event for several dozen guests?

Yes, supported by a brigade and servers. Beyond around thirty guests, the format approaches event organisation, which we coordinate on a bespoke basis.

Does the private chef wash up and restore the kitchen?

Yes. The private chef cooks on site and leaves the kitchen spotless after service, which sets them apart from a standard caterer delivery.

Advice

Private Chef or Caterer: Which to Choose?

Private chef or caterer: the question arises as soon as it is time to host. The right choice depends on the moment, the number of guests and the experience you want to offer.

Two approaches

Two approaches to the table

The caterer excels at volume and logistics: dishes prepared in advance, delivered and plated for large receptions. The private chef, by contrast, cooks in front of you, at the pace of your guests, in your own kitchen. You gain in freshness, personalisation and presence. To understand what this service entails, discover our private chef offering.

By occasion

Choosing by occasion

An intimate dinner, a villa stay or a family lunch call for a private chef, attentive to every dish and every wish. A reception for several dozen guests, a cocktail dinner or a wedding lend themselves more to a dedicated event organisation, which we coordinate through our private chef for events offering.

Budget & experience

Budget and level of experience

Caterers often charge per platter or menu, with controlled costs over large volumes. A private chef is paid by service, depending on the number of guests, the length and the level of cooking. The difference in price reflects a difference in nature: on one side, a catering service; on the other, a bespoke gastronomic experience at home.
