FAQs
How much does a private chef in Boise cost?
The cost of a private chef for a dinner party can range between $59 and over $100 per person. However, this is just a guide, with the actual price tending to vary based on a few factors. These include the neighborhood you're in as well as the specific dates you plan to book, with busy holidays like Labour Day tending to command strong demand and therefore higher prices. The number of guests in your party will also have an impact, since class prices are tiered based on group size.
For a rough guide to cost, you can view the “per-person” starting price on your chosen experience’s web page. Or why not contact our Concierge team for more in-depth assistance?
What is included when you hire a chef for the night?
The first thing to expect when you hire chefs to cook at your home is for them to take care of absolutely everything. As well as handling all of the grocery shopping, Boise chefs promise to bring with them any specialized equipment required to prepare your chosen menu. After they arrive, you and your guests can sit back and relax as your in-home chef gets to work in the kitchen, serving your chosen dishes, course by course, and leaving you free to enjoy the experience together. The best part? When the evening begins to come to a close, they’ll even take care of the clean up, leaving your kitchen spotless and you free to wind down.
What are the most popular cuisines with private chef experiences?
There are so many options to choose from when you decide to book a private chef experience in Boise. You might be in the mood for surf and turf, contemporary Asian fusion or luxurious New American. When you hire a chef, it’s all possible, and even if you can’t find an “out of the box” menu that tempts your taste buds, your host will be glad to help curate a Michelin-grade meal that does. Whether you’re enlisting the help of a private chef for a dinner party or treating your significant other to a date with a gourmet difference, your chef wants to ensure the best possible experience for all involved, so if you have any special requests, just ask!
How do I hire a chef or rent a chef?
It couldn’t be easier to hire a chef for dinner. Whatever the occasion, whether you want to enlist the help of an in-home chef for a dinner party, date night or simply a night off cooking, all you need to do is head to the Private Chef area of the Cozymeal website. From there, you can search by city, select a host and choose a menu that appeals to your palate. If you’re struggling to find what you’re looking for or are unsure whether the dates you want are available, just reach out to our Concierge team, who are always happy to help with alternative dates, pricing, menu customizations and more.
How much should I tip my private chef?
We’ll start by saying that when you rent a chef, you are under no obligation whatsoever to leave a tip. Whether or not there is a tip on the table, your chef will ensure an indulgent and memorable experience for everybody sitting around it. Having said that, we understand that you may wish to tip. After all, it’s a great way with which to thank your chef for all their hard work. If that sounds like you, the amount that you give is entirely down to your discretion. If you’re unsure, we usually suggest tipping between 10% and 25% of the total experience cost.
Where do the experiences take place?
When you book a private chef experience, this is the first thing your host will ask. All that’s required for your chef to prepare your chosen menu is a clean, functional kitchen. Provided that’s in place, they’ll gladly come to your home or vacation rental, bringing with them everything required to make your chosen menu, including all ingredients along with any specialized equipment that you might not have in your kitchen.
Whether you’re Downtown, in Hyde Park or in Boise Bench, they’ll be delighted to take over your kitchen for the evening, preparing you and your guests a gourmet meal, serving it course by course and delivering the kind of culinary experience that you’re sure to remember forever.
