My boyfriend and I had an amazing time with CJ like I’ve nicknamed him ?. It was his birthday treat and our anniversary. The meals were delicious, taste was differently good and way out of the already. My boyfriend who’s a picky eater cleared his plate without hesitating or overthinking. Chef Jeff was friendly, communicative, prim and polite. He cleaned up well and left the kitchen spotless. He kept to time and made sure we were ok each time he got the chance to. This experience was super fun and pleasant; it sure outdid my expectation in an amazing way. We sure had a good time frfr and if we’re to have it again, it definitely will be CJ ?

FAQS ABOUT PRIVATE CHEFS in Hamilton

How much does a private chef in Hamilton cost?

The cost of a private chef for a dinner party depends on your guest count and culinary experience. Prices typically start at $59 per person and can exceed $100, with a discounted children’s menu available. When you enter your guest count during the booking process, the cost will automatically adjust -- local sales tax is included. Any changes to the menu, group size, or special requests may affect the final cost. If you need any help or have questions while booking your in-home chef for a dinner party, our friendly concierge team is always available to assist you.

What is included when you hire a chef for the night?

When you hire a chef for the night, you'll experience five-star cuisine and exceptional service at your address. Your in-home chef will manage all of the details, from handpicking the finest ingredients to cleaning up afterward. Each dish is expertly prepared at your home, beautifully plated, and served with care. If your menu calls for special equipment, like a Japanese hibachi grill for that theatrical experience, your chef will manage that, too. Whether you're celebrating a milestone birthday or throwing the company’s holiday party, when you hire a chef for dinner, expect effortless entertaining with restaurant-caliber cuisine.

What are the most popular cuisines with private chef experiences?

Hamilton chefs expertly use the freshest locally sourced ingredients to create mouthwatering dishes that reflect the city’s diverse food scene. From seasonal farm-to-table fare to beloved international cuisines like Italian and Middle Eastern, your private chef experience will be completely customized so you can entertain exactly how you want to. Whether you’re enjoying comforting dishes like a rich smoked pork belly poutine or celebrating with a Michelin-star-caliber surf and turf menu paired with local Ontario wines, your in-home chef will curate a menu that highlights the region’s dynamic gastronomy crafted just for you.

How do I hire a chef or rent a chef?

It’s easier to hire a chef in Hamilton than to decide which local brewpub has the best craft beer. It’s just a few steps. Simply select your favorite culinary experiences from this page, choose your event’s date, time, and group size, and you're done. Once your booking is confirmed, your in-home chef will reach out to discuss the details and the menu. Need help securing a date or rent a chef near you? Our friendly concierge team is here to make sure everything goes smoothly and effortlessly.

How much should I tip my private chef?

When you hire a private chef for a dinner party, gratuity is optional and at your discretion. However, suppose your chef’s flawless service, presentation, and irresistible dishes, like tender braised lamb shank, creamy Niagara-based goat cheese risotto, and a decadent maple pecan tart with a dollop of vanilla ice cream, exceed your expectations. In that case, we suggest leaving a tip of 10% to 25% of the total cost to show your appreciation for an unforgettable culinary experience.

Where do the experiences take place?

From Downtown to the scenic views of the Niagara Escarpment, when you hire chefs to cook at your home, you decide where in the port city the culinary experience unfolds. Say goodbye to impersonal restaurants and cookie-cutter menus. As long as your private chef has access to a clean, fully equipped kitchen, your event can take place in your neighbourhood. Whether you're hosting an elegant dinner for eight in Corktown or a casual barbecue in your Dundas backyard, booking an in-home chef for a dinner party means stress-free entertaining where you’re comfortable.
