Private or Personal Chef… What’s the difference?

personal or private chef near me

When it comes to hiring a professional chef to prepare meals in your home, you may hear the terms "personal chef" and "private chef" used interchangeably.

However, there are some key differences between the two that are worth noting.

First up, we have the personal chef. This is the kind of cook who works with multiple clients and shows up to your home to whip up some gourmet grub, usually weekly.

They'll cater to your dietary needs and preferences, and even do your grocery shopping for you. Think of them as your own personal meal genie, granting your foodie wishes on a regular basis.

Here at Team Tiny, our personal chefs create menus that are tailored to your dietary preferences and needs.


Then we have the private chef.

This is the type of chef who serves one client or family exclusively, and will probably ask you to refer to them as "Chef." Sounds pretty glamorous, right? But here's the catch: they're expensive! You'll have to fork over some serious dough for having a private chef at your beck and call.

So, which one should you choose?

It depends on how much money you want to spend and how boujee you're trying to be. If you want the royal treatment and don't mind spending a large fortune, go for the private chef.

But if you're looking for an affordable way for someone to cook you some delicious meals, a personal chef is the way to go!
