FAQs
How does the service work?
When you make a booking we would normally make an initial visit to assess the kitchen and equipment available to us, unless we already know the villa. We would further liaise by e-mail or telephone to discuss your menu and requirements. We would usually have at least one further consultation with you prior to the event to finalise the details.
You are, of course, free to contact us with any questions at any time.
Where are the meals prepared?
We cook all meals in your kitchen. Some initial preparation may be carried out in our base kitchen. We will bring the ingredients for your meals, along with any additional utensils we may require and prepare your food on site.
On departure we will leave your kitchen as we found it
Do we specialise in any particular type of cooking?
We cook a wide variety of food and always aim to meet your preference - subject always to availability of ingredients.
We do not do barbecues, simply because there are too many variables beyond our control and many local restaurants will cook your food on charcoal grills.
Do we take into account special dietary needs?
Yes. When considering your food preferences, we will find out if you or your guests have any special dietary restrictions. The menus that we customise for you will incorporate all of your needs.
Please note that, for those guests with nut allergies, we cannot guarantee that our meals are completely nut free.
Can we make special requests to menu selections?
Of course! Our service is designed to fit your lifestyle and food tastes.
Do you cater at holiday villas?
Gladly but as stated previously we do have one simple request, which is, that all diners have the same choice of menu. Even the best of domestic kitchens do not facilitate a range of different meals being cooked at the same time and we have to bear that in mind when catering for such venues.
We also ask that the kitchen area is left completely to us on evening in question avoid possibility of accidents.
Do you cater for children?
We find that younger children generally do not enjoy the same food as their parents and to maximise enjoyment of the evening, our clients usually feed them before our arrival.
Who uses our Personal Chef Service?
Anyone who enjoys entertaining guests in the comfort of their own home but does not want the added burden of spending most of their time in the kitchen.
If you appreciate great food, enjoy personalised service, and want more time to enjoy entertaining your guests then our service is for you.
