FAQ
-
In Colorado, chefs who don’t use a commercial kitchen must cook at the client’s home. This saves money and lets you ask questions as they work. Cooking onsite also gives you safety and peace of mind— you can watch how food is handled and be sure it’s made to your preferences. You’ll enjoy fresh aromas and a meal served when you want it, in your own dishes instead of a delivery dish.
-
It really depends on which package you need and how simple or complex the menu is. On average you can expect Chef Jones to be in your home any where from 3-6 hours once or twice a week.
-
I do not provide catering services. However, like my Event Prep package. If you have an event where all meals can be made and prepped at your residence well in advance of the event. I may be able to support your event with or without the help of additional kitchen staff at cost.
-
Your are not just paying for food service. You are paying for a range of concierge services as needed from menu planning and budget, kitchen management, Shopping of ingredients, fridge stocking, Preparing of all meals, and kitchen clean up.
Not all clients need every service but as you find what works for your home just let me know.
-
You may cancel at any time but you must honor previously agreed service periods as Chef Jones has dedicated the time and schedule to you and if services are no longer needed regardless if they are rendered you will need to close out the cost of at least the services schedule for the week ahead.
