PRIVATE CHEF PRICING
Enjoying an amazing meal from a talented chef is an awesome treat in and of itself. Now imagine skipping the hassle of picking a place, begging for a reservation (which 99% of restaurants in Tuscaloosa don't accept anyhow) and waiting hours for a table. Instead simply walking into your own dining room or venue of choice. You could even wear your pajamas if you like because, you are at home or in your own special space where you control your special experience (and the dress code). If you'd prefer to use our gorgeous waterfront venue at Founder's Pointe this can be arranged as well.
Whether you are super busy or just want a bit of pampering, we want to help you have an incredible culinary intervention. All things considered, hiring a private chef could even help you control spending to match your budget while bringing your exact vision to life. Let us help you craft your occasion!
