FAQs
How much does a private chef in Omaha cost?
The cost of a private chef for a dinner party in Tucson depends on the size of your group and which type of culinary experience you choose. Prices start at $59 per person and can go over $100, including local sales tax. Children’s menus are available at a discounted rate. The cost of the experience will automatically adjust when you input your group size. Please note that menu changes and additions, such as wine pairings, may affect the final cost. If you need help with booking your in-home chef for a dinner party or have any questions, our friendly concierge team is here to assist you.
What is included when you hire a chef for the night?
When you hire a chef for the night, you get a customized culinary experience with exceptional service. Your in-home chef will handle the food, from shopping for the finest ingredients to cleaning up after the event. Every course will be prepared on-site, artfully plated, and served with care. If your menu calls for special equipment, like a charcoal grill for that perfect Nebraska steak, your chef will bring it along. Whether you’re serving cheese frenchees at your tailgate party or ending your soirée with mini butter brickle ice cream cones, when you hire a chef for dinner, an unforgettable culinary experience is included.
What are the most popular cuisines with private chef experiences?
Omaha chefs are masters at an array of cuisines and are up to date with the latest culinary trends. While timeless favorites like homemade pasta, sushi, and surf-and-turf are always popular, your private chef experience is uniquely yours. Your in-home chef will customize a menu perfectly suited to your event, from a cocktail party with sliders to an elegant dinner party with dry-aged porterhouse steaks and champagne. Whether you want to serve rustic Northern Italian dishes or indulge in a Michelin-worthy menu inspired by fine dining spots like Le Bouillon or The Boiler Room, your in-home chef will craft a menu with your favorite dishes.
How do I hire a chef or rent a chef?
It’s as easy to hire a chef in Omaha as it is to enjoy a day at the Nebraska State Fair. Select your favorite culinary experience, choose a date and time, and enter your group size. Once your booking is confirmed, your private chef will connect with you to discuss your event and the menu. If you need a hand to rent a chef near you or have any questions, please contact our friendly concierge team to guide you through the process.
How much should I tip my private chef?
Tips are optional and completely at your discretion when you hire a private chef for a dinner party. However, if you’d like to show appreciation for your chef’s attentive service, beautiful presentation, and delicious dishes, such as their crab and sweet corn fritters, melt-in-your-mouth seared ribeyes, and homemade butter brickle ice cream, a tip of 10% to 25% of the total cost is suitable.
Where do the experiences take place?
When you hire chefs to cook at your home, your culinary experience can take shape anywhere. From a cozy loft in the Old Market to a scenic backyard along the Missouri River, as long as your private chef has access to a fully equipped kitchen, they’ll create mouthwatering dishes in your chosen location. Whether you're enjoying hand-carved prime rib at a backyard barbecue in Dundee or indulging in Mexican cuisine under the stars in Aksarben, hiring an in-home chef for a dinner party lets you experience the finest Midwestern cuisine at home.
