How it works

Personal chef service can be a fun and exciting experience. It is much simpler than most people think. We start with a complimentary no-obligation meeting via phone or in person to discuss several items including location, party size, menu, and if there are any special food requirements that need to be addressed.

Chef Bobby will then plan and develop a custom menu that will compliment your desires for the event. Upon completion, Chef Bobby will send you the menu for approval. Should any changes be needed, they can be discussed at this time. Upon approval of your final menu, your service date will be booked and confirmed.

On the day of your event Chef Bobby will personally shop and select the freshest and highest quality ingredients available for your event. The Chef will arrive at your event with his food and needed equipment to prepare and cook your selections. All of your cuisine is cooked fresh at your event to insure the highest quality. Any leftovers will be professionally wrapped and labeled for use later.

The facility will be cleaned just as the chef found it and everything will be put back exactly where it was found. Another successful event!
