What does a private chef cost in Brooklyn?
Each chef sets their own per-guest price, which covers menu planning, ingredients, cooking, service, and cleanup. Open any chef's profile to see their current per-guest pricing and sample menus.
Private chef vs. personal chef: what's the difference?
People use both terms when searching for someone to cook at home. "Personal chef" often describes recurring meal preparation for a household, while "private chef" usually describes a chef cooking and serving a menu for an occasion. ChefXperience is the second kind: a one-time, in-home dining experience for you and your guests, from menu planning through cleanup — no ongoing subscription.
Frequently asked questions
Do chefs travel across Brooklyn?
Yes. Each chef lists the boroughs they serve and a maximum travel distance on their profile. Travel outside that standard service area may carry a fee, disclosed before you confirm.
Can a chef cook in a small Brooklyn apartment kitchen?
Yes. Chefs work with the kitchen you have and bring specialty equipment for their menu. Mention stairs, parking, or kitchen limitations in your booking request so your chef can plan.
How many guests can a Brooklyn private chef cook for?
Party sizes vary by chef and menu. Each profile shows sample menus and per-guest pricing, and your chef confirms what works for your guest count.
Can the menu be customized for allergies?
Yes. Share allergies and dietary restrictions in your request — vegan, gluten-free, kosher, halal and more — and the menu is built around them.
Is a Brooklyn booking a one-time dinner or a subscription?
A one-time dinner. You book a chef for a specific date and occasion; there is no weekly meal-prep commitment.
