FAQS ABOUT PRIVATE CHEFS in Baton Rouge
How much does a private chef in Baton Rouge cost?
The cost of a private chef for a dinner party depends on your guest count and the culinary experience you selected. Prices start at $59 and can exceed $100 per person, with a discounted children’s menu. When you enter your group size during the booking process, the cost will automatically adjust. Please note that local sales tax is included in the price. Changes to the menu, wine pairings, and special requests may alter the final cost. If you need assistance booking an in-home chef for a dinner party, please contact our concierge team, which is happy to help.
What is included when you hire a chef for the night?
When you hire a chef for the night, you're in for a personalized culinary experience with top-tier service. Your in-home chef will take care of everything, from purchasing the freshest crawfish to cleaning up after the event. Each dish will be prepared on-site, carefully plated, and served with Southern charm. If your menu requires special equipment, like a well-seasoned cast iron skillet to sear Gulf shrimp, your chef will bring it. Whether you're hosting a Southern-style brunch or want to end your dinner party with warm beignets dusted in powdered sugar, when you hire a chef for dinner, you’re guaranteed an unforgettable culinary experience.
What are the most popular cuisines with private chef experiences?
Baton Rouge chefs can prepare a wide range of cuisines in addition to traditional Cajun and Creole favorites. While Southern staples like gumbo and po'boys are always crowd-pleasers, your private chef experience can also include popular cuisines like umami-rich Asian, homemade Italian pasta, and classic American surf and turf. Your in-home chef will craft a personalized menu that suits your event, from a casual crawfish boil in the backyard to a luxurious multi-course meal inspired by the refined Creole dishes served at Jubans Restaurant and throughout the Perkins Overpass district.
How do I hire a chef or rent a chef?
It’s as easy to hire a chef in Baton Rouge as it is to find Zatarain’s seasoning packets at the supermarket. Simply select your favorite culinary experience, choose a date and time, and enter your group size – C'est tout! Once your booking is confirmed, your in-home chef will contact you to discuss the tasty details. If you need help to rent a chef near you or have any questions, please contact our friendly concierge team for assistance.
How much should I tip my private chef?
When you hire a private chef for your dinner party, tipping is entirely optional and up to your discretion. However, if you’re delighted with your chef’s exceptional service, creative dishes, and stunning presentation, like their perfectly seasoned shrimp and grits, crispy fried catfish, and decadent pecan praline pie, leaving a tip of 10% to 25% of the total cost is suitable.
Where do the experiences take place?
From the Garden District to historic Spanish Town and Southside, when you hire chefs to cook at your home, your culinary experience can unfold in any setting. As long as your private chef has access to a fully equipped kitchen, they’ll bring their expertise right to your door. Whether you're savoring crawfish étouffée at a lively gathering in Mid City South or enjoying blackened redfish and buttermilk biscuits Downtown, hiring an in-home chef for a dinner party lets you indulge in the best the city offers without the stress (and mess) that traditionally comes with hosting.
