Sarita B. says, "We hired Mike Betts as a Personal Chef to cook a birthday meal for my son's 21st birthday at our home in Arlington MA. What made this tricky was that my two boys and I are all avid cooks and the whole family is a foodie family. We had a total of 8 guests and the menu was completely customized. It was our first time hiring a personal chef and Mike made the experience delightful for all of us. Weeks prior to the event, my son and I worked closely with Mike on a fairly complex menu and Mike delivered!! The menu included: Grilled shrimp with fried leeks Tomato basil soup shots Wagyu beef on chimmichurri Grilled Short rib Hamachi crudo with grapefruits and radish Cucumber cups with tuna and salmon Tuna on crispy rice Matcha Creme Brulee Amazing menu delivered to perfection -everything was delicious. But what made this even more special was a) Mike's attitude, (he connected with every person in our group, he let my son cook with him, taught him how to cook wagyu, and showed an amazing combination of friendliness and professionalism) and; b) all the little extras he brought to the party - small bottles of his home made sauces, a beautiful platter of fresh fruits, and much more. Amazing experience all around - and I would welcome Mike back to cook for us any day!!"See more

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

You can take private cooking classes to have fun, to learn a new skill, to improve your health, to bond with your partner, to enjoy a playful first date or to have a unique birthday party experience. Nationally the average cost of private cooking lessons ranges between $100 and $150. Prices can vary, depending on where you live, the type of cooking class you’re taking, the ingredients the chef provides, and the reputation of the chef. Cooking classes with Anthony Bourdain will clearly cost more than classes with a local restaurant owner. The number of people in the class will also affect the cost, with group lessons often priced per person to account for the cost of ingredients. For example, for group lessons, a brunch workshop may cost an average of $70 per person, a steak dinner with sides could cost an average of $80-$85 per person, and a sushi lesson could cost an average of $100 per person. Ingredients play a major role in cost, as the chef will pre-purchase the food you will be working with. Weekday classes will usually cost less than weekend classes.
