What is the difference between
Private Chefs and Personal Chefs?
Although often confused, the difference is substantial. Private
Chefs
prepare multi-course meals that are consumed once prepared.
There is no
freezing or re-heating involved. Private Chefs work in
cooperation with a
waiter/ress and a housekeeper or kitchen helper/dishwasher. They
plan the
menu with the client, shop for the groceries, and prepare the
meal, usually
consisting of a high end, multi-course gourmet meal. Although
most Private
Chefs work for one family, some have various clients,
specializing in
creating fabulous dinner parties for the rich and famous.
Personal Chefs cook for several families or individuals. Once
every week or
two, personal chefs shop for the groceries, go to the client's
home and
prepare several entrees at one time in the client's kitchen,
then package
and store those meals in the refrigerator or freezer and provide
the clients
with re-heating instructions.
