Personal Chef
We hired Chef David Mark to cook us a four coursed meal for our anniversary. We had never done this type of experience and his pictures matched what we wanted--someone that wasn't just going to give us traditional steak, lobster, and a molten chocolate cake and call it a day. From our first consultation with him, we could tell that he understood our food preferences. He came to the house with all of his own equipment and had each course well timed out. We both love trying new foods and experiences, but agreed this one definitely one of the top meals we have had. Everything meal was a great flavor combination that we had not tried yet and every plate looked so pretty. By the end of the night, we were left extremely happy and full.

David and Vance put together a fantastic experience for my dinner party. We contacted David last minute to put together a dinner party for my wife’s birthday. Our prior plans fell through and I needed someone to save the day. David promptly got back to me and had a menu put together in a matter of hours. The food and presentation far exceeded anything we would’ve been served had we kept our previous plans. This was a truly unique experience. I look forward to hiring David again in the future.

FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?We charge a flat rate for personal chef services that includes shopping, cooking, serving (if applicable) and cleaning. The price is variable based on the amount of food, intricacy of techniques used and if exact portioning is necessary for nutritional information, etc. The price does not include groceries, which will be reimbursed by the client upon receiving the receipts. This enables us to purchase exactly the type of ingredients the client wants. For catered events, we will provide the client with an itemized estimate with prices for each dish, service, disposables, etc. The price will vary depending on the intricacy of technique and price of ingredients needed for the menu chosen, as well as style of service. Cooking classes are priced based on the number of hours and people taking the class.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?We will discuss your food preferences and nutritional/dietary needs and go over some options that I think you would like. I will write a customized menu for you to review. As a new business, we are not requiring a deposit before writing a menu. If you like the menu, we will discuss all the other necessary options and I will write an estimate for services. You can then choose to book us and leave a deposit, and the remainder will be charged the day services are performed.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?I graduated from the Institute of Culinary Education in New York City. I am currently an Entrepreneurship student at Hillsborough Community College.
