**Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)**

 

1. **What does a personal chef do?**

A personal chef plans, shops, prepares, and cooks meals in your home based on your specific dietary preferences and needs. They also handle all clean-up and can provide reheating instructions if meals are prepared in advance.

 

 2. **How does the service work?**

We begin with a consultation to understand your food preferences, dietary restrictions, and meal needs. After that, your personal chef will create a customized menu, shop for groceries, cook in your home, and clean up afterward. Meals can be made fresh for immediate consumption or prepped for the week with reheating instructions.

 

 3. **Do I need to provide groceries?**

It depends on the package you choose. For most packages, our chefs handle grocery shopping and select the highest quality ingredients. However, you can also choose to provide your own groceries, and we will adjust the service fee accordingly.

 

 4. **How far in advance do I need to book a personal chef?**

We recommend booking at least one week in advance to ensure availability, especially for larger packages or events. However, we may accommodate last-minute requests depending on chef availability.

 

5. **What types of cuisine can you prepare?**

Our chefs are experienced in a wide range of cuisines, including American, Italian, French, Asian, Mediterranean, vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and more. We’ll tailor the menu to your preferences and dietary requirements.

 

6. **Can you accommodate special diets and food allergies?**

Yes! We cater to a variety of dietary restrictions, including gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, paleo, keto, and more. Be sure to inform us of any allergies or dietary preferences during the consultation, and your chef will ensure the meals are safe and suitable for your needs.

 

 7. **Will the chef clean up after cooking?**

Yes. After preparing the meals, our chefs clean up the kitchen, leaving it as spotless as they found it. All pots, pans, and tools used for cooking are cleaned as part of the service.

 

 8. **How many meals can I expect per visit?**

The number of meals depends on the service package you choose. For example, our Economy Package includes 1 meal per visit, while our Platinum Package can cover up to breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. We’ll work with you to meet your meal needs.

 

9. **Do I have to be home while the chef is cooking?**

No, you don’t have to be home during the cooking session. Many clients provide access to their kitchen, and our chefs prepare meals while they’re away. If you prefer, you can also be present to provide feedback or enjoy the experience.

 

 10. **How much does a personal chef cost?**

Our service packages start at affordable rates for basic meal preparation and go up for more comprehensive services, including daily visits and gourmet meals. You can choose from our Economy, Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum packages, with pricing based on frequency and number of meals prepared.

 

11. **Is there a contract or commitment?**

We offer both one-time and ongoing services, so no long-term commitment is required. You can book a single session or arrange for weekly or monthly services based on your needs.

 

 12. **How are meals stored?**

Meals can be stored in your fridge or freezer with clear reheating instructions, depending on your preference. We use high-quality food storage containers, but you can also provide your own containers if preferred.

 

13. **Can I customize my menu each week?**
