FAQS ABOUT PRIVATE CHEFS in Vancouver
How much does a private chef in Vancouver cost?
The cost of hiring a private chef for a dinner party depends on your group size 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 in the price. 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 available to assist you every step of the way.
What is included when you hire a chef for the night?
When you hire a chef for the night, you’re in for a truly exceptional culinary experience. Your personal chef will take care of everything, from purchasing the finest local ingredients at Granville Island Public Market to cleaning up afterward. Each dish is expertly prepared right in your kitchen, carefully plated, and thoughtfully served. If your menu requires special equipment, like a hibachi grill, your chef will take care of that, too. Whether you’re celebrating a promotion at work or hosting a Jack and Jill baby shower, when you hire a chef for dinner, you should expect gourmet food and top-notch service.
What are the most popular cuisines with private chef experiences?
The city’s dynamic food scene, with everything from casual food trucks to Michelin-starred restaurants, attracts some of the best chefs in the Pacific Northwest. Your in-home chef will bring that same level of expertise to your meal, crafting a bespoke menu that highlights the city’s local ingredients. From classic dishes like Northern Italian pasta and Japanese sushi to Vancouver’s cutting-edge fusion cuisine – think Italian-Japanese mashups – your private chef will create a culinary masterpiece tailored to your tastes. With impeccable service, beautiful plating, and a meal you won't forget, your private chef experience will be nothing short of extraordinary.
How do I hire a chef or rent a chef?
It’s easier to hire a chef in Vancouver than to pick which food truck line to stand in at night. Simply pick one of the curated culinary experiences listed on this page, select a date and time, and then enter your group size. As soon as your reservation is confirmed, your in-home chef will reach out to discuss the menu and other delicious details. If you need help with securing a date or have any questions, our friendly concierge team will happily help you rent a chef near you.
How much should I tip my private chef?
When you hire a private chef for a dinner party, tipping is entirely optional and up to you. However, if your chef wows you with flawless service, artistic presentation, and delicious dishes, like smoky candied salmon, creamy butternut squash risotto, and a decadent Pacific Northwest berry tart, in that case, we suggest leaving a gratuity of 10% to 25% of the total cost to show your appreciation.
Where do the experiences take place?
When you hire chefs to cook at your home, your culinary experience can unfold in any neighbourhood, from a modern loft Downtown to an oceanfront home in the West End. As long as your private chef has access to a clean and fully equipped kitchen, they’ll craft Vancouver’s finest dishes right where you are. Whether you're serving fresh West Coast oysters on a patio overlooking False Creek or savoring B.C. hand-rolls and sashimi in Yaletown, booking an in-home chef for your dinner lets you experience the very best of Vancouver’s food scene from the comfort of your place.
