What do private chef services include?

When opening up private chef jobs on Airtasker, you can fully customise the task depending on your need. You have control over the inclusions and budget so that personal chefs can prepare all food based on your preferences or requirements. This means that you can enjoy any cuisine without worrying if it meets your dietary needs. Here are some things to expect when booking a private chef near you through our platform:

In-house chef

Having a private chef at home can give any meal an upgrade. Hire a Tasker for special occasions like anniversaries or birthdays. Treat a loved one to a spread of all his breakfast favourites topped off with home-baked dessert. A professional chef can dedicate a day to create a menu and dining experience that rivals a fancy restaurant. The best part is you don’t even have to leave your home or bother with dress code restrictions. Have a candle-lit steak and wine night in your sleepwear if you want!

Meal prepping and planning

A private chef can also cook for you regularly, either preparing meals fresh daily or batch cooking a few dishes for the whole week. Feel free to let them know about your dietary requirements and preferences. They can even handle the grocery shopping for you and get quality ingredients for a full-course meal. Booking a personal chef service means your Tasker can also work with your fitness trainer or consult with a licensed nutritionist before creating a bespoke menu based on your current health status and goals.

Lastly, there’s no need to worry about cleaning up after cooking. These can all be handled by your Tasker whether they cook in your kitchen or prepare the meals in theirs and deliver it to you instead. All you need to do is sit back and savour your delicious food!

Dinner parties and catering

You can also hire a personal chef for group gatherings and events. Why bother slaving off in the kitchen to create an impressive feast? There’s also no need to arrange for pot luck any more for private dinner parties and Sunday lunches. Having a private chef for a dinner party will surely make event planning a breeze! You can enjoy your guests’ company without worries because a highly-rated Tasker has the kitchen under control. You can book catering for a small family reunion or a huge get-together with friends! Gone are the days when decadent dishes and fine dining is reserved for five-star restaurants. Transform any space into a food haven with a private chef on Airtasker!

Hello, We’re looking for a private chef to prepare a delicious Christmas lunch for our Sydney team. We’re thinking two protein options (one vegetarian) and 2–3 sides or salads at around $70 per head. Unfortunately, we don’t have kitchen facilities on-site, so the meal would need to be fully prepared in advance. We do have crockery and cutlery available, so we’ll be able to plate and serve everything once it arrives. If you have any questions or need further details, feel free to get in touch, we’d love to hear from you!

There are three of us, one trained in the kitchen, one amateur enthusiast, and one birthday boy who is turning 13, who would love to grow his culinary passions and has a massively developed palette. We'd love to spend 3 hours preparing a basic three course menu, learning a few common techniques, and having a generally instructional but fun time! Price would be inclusive of ingredients, with a menu heavy in high-quality meats and low on sugar and starches. Weirder and more creative, the better!

Hi there I will be hosting an ANZAC day lunch on the 25th of April from 1.00pm and would like a private chef to compose and cook a menu (or a high-tea) for 6 pax. Would like three courses, or a fancy cocktail high-tea depending on the suggested menu. The suggested budget should include all labour and ingredients and everything can be done in our (small) kitchen, or prepped offsite and brought in and heated onsite. We have a 4 burner gas fan forced oven (the oven gets quite hot), plus a microwave and Air Fryer. Can provide most cooking utensils if needed as well as a magic bullet, all cutlery, plates and serving dishes - though you may want to do a site visit prior to the actual date to check what we have. Please feel free to ask any questions. Thanks.
