What is a personal chef?

A personal chef is much like a private chef, serves multiple families or individuals and custom tailors the menus and service to each individual client. A private chef typically “lives in” with a family versus a personal chef who comes to your home to prepare meals on a weekly, biweekly or monthly basis and leaves when finished.

A personal chef creates delicious meals in your home, takes care of time-consuming errands and tasks, and leaves you with more time on your hands to do what you love best. My Everyday Gourmet is a full-service Toronto based personal chef service and will plan menus, shop, prepare delicious meals and clean the kitchen all before you get home from work.

  • A two-career family where no one has time to cook.
  • New parents with little ones to attend to.

  • Aging parents who aren’t as spry as they once were.

How do you get started with a personal chef?

First, we get together for a free, no obligation consultation in your home. We’ll talk about your food preferences, what you love, what you don’t. We’ll talk about any food allergies, special diets, religious observances that are important to you. I’ll take a look at your kitchen to determine any special equipment we’ll need to bring. We’ll set a schedule for personal chef services in your home that ensures confidentiality and privacy for you.

Most clients prefer to let me think about “What’s For Dinner”? Others like to let me know their favorite meals. Either way, you will have menus that you approve, with meals tailored to your preferences and prepared fresh in your home on each cook day. Once we establish a schedule and have a working agreement, we’ll set a date for your first cook day.

  • In the morning I will plan menus and shop for the freshest ingredients. I will arrive at your home around 8am–10am. Most clients simply leave a key for me so I can cook in their home while they are at work or busy doing other things.
  • I will prepare, package and label your meals.
  • I will leave your kitchen clean and neat.
  • I’ll usually wrap things up by 4 or 5pm, depending on the menu and your schedule. Things work most efficiently when there are fewer distractions in the home.
  • When you arrive home, your house will be filled with your favorite aromas. You’ll find a fridge and freezer full of home-cooked meals and perhaps even a warm stew in the crock pot!
