Are you looking for a special evening or private dinner party, taken in the comfort of your own home? Then look no further than our Private Chef service here at dido’s. We take all the hassle and stress away from entertaining your guests, so you can truly be a guest in your own home!
There are so many advantages to hiring a private chef. These include less time pressure, you get to choose your own drinks and wine (which is also very cost effective) as well as the joy of having me guide you through the features of each course, whilst you relax and enjoy time with your family or friends.
The first step when planning for a private chef party, is for us to work out a suitable menu, e.g. any dietary requirements for you and your guests, how many courses you would like to serve and any ingredients that are “must haves” or “avoid”. As long as we can cover your date and time, then we are good to go! Here at dido’s, locally sourced, seasonal ingredients are at the heart of what we use in our menus and food and by using my private chef services, you are also supporting many other local businesses and farms too. Our sample private chef menus can be viewed by clicking on this link. We can cater to all dietary requirements and preferences and work on different numbers of courses to fit your budget.
Once we have agreed on a menu for you and your guests, I will carefully source all the ingredients and carry out as much preparation work as I can off site, prior to setting up at your home. I will also bring all necessary equipment for any cooking and heating that needs to be carried out in your kitchen.
We can also serve canapés and cocktails or aperitifs before sitting down to experience your menu. I enjoy introducing each course to you and your guests, explaining the ingredients and how I put it together, before leaving you to chat and savour the food. Tea, coffee and petit fours can also be served at the end to tie up the whole experience for you. Do you want to know the best part? We will take care of all your tidying up and washing so you get to relax with your guests and really enjoy your evening!
We are proud to have a 5 star hygiene factor so you can have peace of mind that your food is being handled, prepped and cooked to the highest standards.
