What is a Personal Chef?

A Personal Chef serves several clients, usually one per day, and provides multiple meals that are custom designed for the client’s particular requests and requirements. These meals are packaged and stored so that the client may enjoy them at their leisure in the future. Additionally, some personal chef’s provide services for dinner parties and special occasions. Perfectly Seasoned Chef provides all these great personal chef services to clients located in Central Maryland, Baltimore and Washington, DC.

How does it work?

The initial consultation for personal chef services is free of charge. I will come to your home and discuss your dietary preferences including likes/dislikes, any food allergies/sensitivities, and the frequency of your personal chef services. I will do grocery shopping the day of meal preparation. This will ensure that all ingredients are fresh. The client is responsible for the actual cost of groceries. Meal preparation will be conducted at your home using your equipment but I will bring any additional supplies needed to prepare your meals. For weekly clients, meals will be clearly labeled and placed in your fridge with heating instructions. I will leave your kitchen as clean as I found it with the aroma’s from the day’s cooking wafting in your home.

Pricing

For weekly meals, pricing will vary based on the number of meals required per week and the number of servings per meal. Maryland sales taxes will be applied to the service fee. Groceries will be reimbursed at cost. Service pricing includes initial consultation, meal and menu planning, grocery shopping, meal preparation and storage, and kitchen clean up.

For special events and parties are priced after consultation - these events are very dependent on specifics of the occasion.
