Frequently asked questions about Chef Hire
How is chef hire pricing determined?+
A quote is prepared after chef/support staff count, working hours, guest or portion count, menu production load, kitchen infrastructure and role scope are confirmed.
Are food ingredients included in chef hire?+
They are not assumed to be included automatically. Ingredient supply, consumables and any required small kitchen equipment are confirmed separately before booking.
Does the venue need a professional kitchen?+
Not every menu needs the same setup. Depending on the menu, cooking equipment, electricity or gas, clean water, chilled storage, worktops and waste handling must be checked in advance.
Can you send chefs to homes, villas or event venues?+
Planning is available across Istanbul’s European and Asian sides. Final service is confirmed after kitchen access, work area, equipment and event timing are reviewed.
Can dietary or allergen requests be planned?+
Share them in the menu brief in advance. Feasibility is confirmed after the ingredients, kitchen workflow and cross-contact risks are reviewed.
