Chef Joe blew us away. He came prepared and immediately took control of the kitchen, never needing to ask for something or chime in. If anything, he was super patient with us, as we were so thrilled to have him and he immediately had an audience. That didn’t phase him at all and his personality shone as brightly as his menu. His patience was further tested when the bedtime routine for our kids pushed our dinner time significantly. He was nothing but accommodating and understanding, patiently waiting for us to get settled rather than urging to sit. This meant a lot to us - it’s tough enough to travel with children (they throw a wrench in every plan). He put us at ease when we apologized for the delay and took it in stride, which allowed us to truly savor the experience he created for us. The food was all amazing. I’ve never had a better piece of Salmon in my life. We all took his info home with us and will definitely be calling him in the future. Thank you, Joe!

Rebecca was amazing. She was so accommodating and so easy to work with. My family has a lot of dietary restrictions and Rebecca made something for everyone. Everything was delicious from start to finish. The portions were huge. Her assistant Jessica was great as well. Thanks to Rebecca and Jessica my husband’s birthday celebration was fabulous. My entire family loved everything that Rebecca made and she is a lovely person as well. I give her 5 plus star rating.

Chef Santos created a truly memorable experience for our family. They arrived on time, were personable and engaging. They shared stories with our family while they prepared our meals and we learned about cooking techniques and trends. The meal was amazing as each course was exquisitely plated and provided a depth of flavor that left everybody satisfied. If you are looking to create a special night at home, Brian is your man. We are looking forward to using him again soon.

Chef Emily was better than we even expected! She was so friendly, informative, and her food was outstanding!!! We would highly recommend Chef Emily to anyone looking for a unique experience with a personable chef!

Is there a maximum number of guests for a private chef service?

While there's no strict limit on guest count, private chef experiences are designed to create a more intimate atmosphere, perfect for gatherings of friends and family. Since most homes have limited space to accommodate large groups, parties typically don't exceed 15 people.

Does the chef cook at my house?

Yes, the chef always prepares the menu at your home for a more personalized experience. However, some prep work might be done beforehand for complex dishes.

Can I cook along with the chef?

Absolutely! Many guests are passionate about food and relish the chance to learn from the chef. You can pick up new kitchen skills and get a behind-the-scenes look at each dish on the menu. Feel free to jump in and cook alongside the chef for a truly interactive experience!

Are the ingredients fresh?

Yes, they're 100% fresh. Unlike restaurants with pre-made dishes, private chefs prioritize using the freshest ingredients possible. This is because the chef creates a customized menu specifically for you, then goes out and sources the finest ingredients to bring your chosen dishes to life.

Are drinks included in the personal chef service?

Drinks are not typically included, but you can discuss adding them to the menu proposal with the chef.

How much should I tip my private chef in Rutland?

Tipping for private chefs is entirely at your discretion. Our goal is for you to have an unforgettable experience, and the chef always appreciates a nice tip. However, the decision and amount are completely up to you.
