Life with a private chef
Pros of having a private chef.
- Personalized menus
Having a private chef in your kitchen means you can have menus tailored to your dietary preferences. Whether you’re a vegan or a vegetarian, every meal is adapted for you. Of course, the chef must adapt to your desires and culinary tastes.
- Time saving
One of the advantages of employing a private chef is that it saves you time. Having a chef means you don’t have to spend time grocery shopping, cooking and tidying up your kitchen. The time you save not doing these tasks means you can spend more time with your loved ones, for example.
- At home restaurant experience
The main advantage of having a chef at home is obviously the feeling of having a restaurant at home. The private chef cooks excellent products in the best possible way. Moreover, you can request dishes, a type of cuisine or even let yourself be surprised by the chef’s inspiration. Having a private chef combines the best of both worlds.
Cost of a private chef
Of course, a private chef does involve certain costs, but he or she can also save you money in some cases. It goes without saying that you have to pay the chef what he or she is worth. In Los Angeles, private chefs’ salaries can vary from 3,500 to 20,000 dollars a month, depending on the chef’s experience and level.
However, a private chef can also save you money. When shopping, chefs often have good relationships with local suppliers, which means they can get lower prices on certain products. Furthermore, you will discover that your chef often cooks better than in most restaurants in Los Angeles. So you can easily organize receptions, parties… right in your own home!
