Hire a Personal Chef to Cook at Your Home
Booking a private dining experience is kind of a big deal. After all, you are hiring a professional chef to cater for your special, one of a kind occasion and you don’t want to leave anything to chance. Maybe this is your first private dining event and your head is filled with questions. Am I making the right choice with the right chef? Is the food really all that great? Speaking of great food, is it even affordable? Why on earth would I not just go to that fancy restaurant round the corner? And even before you get to these questions, you have to ask yourself, what kind of occasion would merit going to the trouble of hiring a private chef anyway?
Here’s why Cambridgeshire's Fallon Barnes Dining takes the guesswork out of your private dining experience and is the perfect choice for you and your friends, family or whoever you are bringing along to your unforgettable dining occasion.
Meet the Chef
You wouldn’t just let anyone into your home right? With a career spanning a few decades, Andy utilises his skill, expertise and industry experience to put you at ease.
With an eminent dedication to professionalism and social deftness, it will feel like you’ve known Andy for years. And this is an aspect of private dining that is often overlooked. Whether its an important anniversary, retirement party or just a nice night in with the family, you’re not just hiring a chef but someone who will make the occasion inclusive, fun and truly unforgettable.
Besides, Andy's experience speaks for itself. Cooking for one of the greatest rock singers of all time? Not a problem. Preparing tasty morsels for members of the Royal Family enjoying a thrilling tennis match? Easy. No matter the occasion or who you might have dropping by, Andy will have something for everyone and anyone.
Food is Passion
These days, just about anyone with an internet connection and five minutes to spare can whip up something decently edible in the kitchen. While most of us love to eat, any chef worth his salt knows that an ingredient is not just an ingredient, a food dish is not just a food dish and a kitchen is certainly not just a kitchen. In fact, it’s all those steps a chef takes to build a culinary masterpiece that separates the local takeaway from true dining sophistication. Your taste buds will thank you for this luscious treat!
Sounds Great, But What’s This Private Dining All About Then?
Ok, you’ve perused the menu, got a feel for the chef and what he can create and are just about tempted, but what exactly are you getting from a private dining experience? I mean, why not just get that super convenient takeaway?
Private dining is about creating an experience like no other. One that will have you telling (ok, bragging to) your friends and returning to book your next big event.
And with Andy, your experience couldn’t be more unique. In fact, you and your preferences are at the heart of what Andy does. While many private caterers will present you with a menu and a price, Andy offers a bespoke service that allows you the freedom and choice to shape your dining the way you want it. It’s your event, your evening and your money, so why settle for less than exactly what you want?
Andy offers:
-
Seasonal bespoke menus (sample menus available on website). Nothing is off the table-Discuss with Andy to create the menu you want
-
All sourcing of ingredients, table service, prep work and washing-up
-
Wine pairing consultation upon request
-
Just about the best food one ordinary human can create
Private Chef at Home
You go through the trouble of getting that pesky, elusive reservation at that fancy, high-end restaurant you heard all about. Now it’s time to hire the babysitter- the good ones cost the most. Then, there’s booking the taxi to take you to and from the restaurant, the alcohol you will have sent to the table and the food you will be indulging in. All in all a pretty expensive night and, from what you can remember a week later, the food was 'meh'.
Hiring a private chef that has the ability to transport that fancy dining experience into your own home is actually money well-saved, cuts down on your expenses and delivers an unmatchable evening where the only cost to your wallet is the exceptional food you choose to treat your palate to. Just imagine five-star dining in the comfort of your dining room! Where do you sign up?
Locally-Sourced and Sustainable
Let's be honest, Cambridgeshire is a beautiful locale- precious and desirable and you’d like to keep it that way. Andy only uses locally-sourced, sustainable ingredients that are of the highest quality found. Have peace of mind while enjoying your event, knowing you are giving back to your local economy and helping to sustain the local environment for generations to come.
